Late last night I was hammering on rt280 and my car didnt sound nor felt like it was giving me its 110%. This morning I took a look at the actuator on the back of the engine. I grabbed it and gave it a turn and it felt extremely loose. So I started the car (normal operating temp) and gave it WOT several times. It appears that the actuator is inop. I checked to see if I was getting a signal at WOT and I was. (production date 8/02 / 5200miles)
For the time being I locked it down to be always open.

For those of you that like to race/play be sure to check that actuator. It does give ya some more ponies. I took these pics when I did some port work to my intake manifold.
