First off my i have a 2g talon with a 1g motor. Not sure if I should've bought a 1g cable now due to mounting and bolting placement.

So I purchased a new 2g cruise cable and installed it a few weeks ago. This isn't my DD so a few days after I installed it the I went out to test a few thigs with ecmlink. I noticed that at certain points my throttle poosition would hit 100% but at WOT my throttle position sits around 75%. I never had that issue with my old cable even with the CC box and all.

I did notice the even with it adjusted to the furthest point on the IM mounting brackets there is still a lot more slack than I would expect. I've tested the cable with the car off and it does appear it opens as it should and dsmlink shows 0%-100% with the car off.

I thought of maybe hacking my old cable to test compared to the new cable. also thought of using a dremel to bore out mounting bracket but that would only leave me with one slot to bolt the bracket down with.
 
Is the cable connector for your TPS secure? I wonder if it has a bad connection or a broken wire in the harness. What offset is Link giving you when you calibrate your TPS? If it is too far off, I would move the TPS to the center of rotation and try again.

I have a 2g non-cruse cable with a Hyundai Sonata TB and I am less than impressed. It was very hard for me to get the right position (no slack) and also allow the throttle plate to close completely.
 
Thanks for the response. I wouldn't think my TPS would affect my cable slack. At idle i'm sitting at .63 and can go from 0-100% throttle and up to 5.00. It's just weird that during WOT pulls i'm maxing out between 70-80 only. I'll tinker with my TPS some more this weekend in the hopes it may help. I'm tempted to take my old throttle cable apart and rigging up a new cable.
