98% throttle at full pedal travel, worth adjusting?
Is it worth adjusting my throttle cable so it's at 100% for the last 2%? Not that I go full throttle often but I figure that last 2% isn't going to make much difference but others will know better. At no throttle what should the position of the throttle be open just so I know if I do adjust it?
Never mind I sorted it out, I remembered I took the fake kick down switch from the throttle pedal years ago because it was annoying so the throttle doesn't touch the casing at full throttle position anyway. Should be pretty spot on though, idles about 5% or though cold and 100% at full throttle, touch off goes to 98% so it should be pretty accurate.

I was bored and messing around. I topped up my intercooler from the top because it seems to have dropped a little. Car didn't feel as powerful and the top of the intercooler was fairly hot the other day, it's nice and cool again now though. I had the water pump replaced so it likely dropped a little when they changed it. The system is connected and not connected so the coolant system can be full but the intercooler not as it's a higher area. I had a socket to fit it when I repalced the intercooler pump a few years ago. I should make it a thing to check more often.
