Default FM turbo install nearly complete - need a part

Yes I put a WTB out there but I have little faith that most people ever look at those.

I'm pretty much done installing the hardware and realized that I no longer have a throttle cable bracket! I had a S/C before and sold it. I'm guessing I left the bracket attached to something I sold and I just realized it last night. Anybody have one they can part with? Just the little piece that attaches to the intake manifold.

Thanks!

I just took one of these off a car because it was no longer needed, should still be in my garage. I'll look tonight.

Cool. I'll PM you guys my digits. I'll be there all weekend and plan to do the dinner thing that Doppelganger is organizing. Just text when you're around or something.

I'll be in a black Mazdapeed 3. I'm figuring on being Miataless until mid May at this point!

Since the question was asked - and for total clarity, it's this bracket:

Well, so far you are the only one that knows for sure you have one. Any idea of there's any difference on a 94-97 vs. a later one?

This seems to prove my theory about the WTB ads.... ;-)

Dunno about differences, I'd look some pics, but I'm about to get off work. Whe nI get home, I'll take a look at the one I have compared to the picture posted above. Do you need it before the Mitty? I can overnight it to you and you can have it by tomorrow if need be.

Nah. I'm doing bushings, frame rail install, FM tophats, and struggling with MegaSquirt...car won't be ready for a few weeks yet. No rush. I really appreciate the effort though.

The one I have was from my 95, which was later used on a 99 head. Got replaced with the FM bracket because the whole setup went into a 1.6 chassis. I took it off last week, should still be sitting there. I'll know in just a bit.

I have it and it's in the car (along with the two 10mm mounting bolts).

Regarding the WTB thread, this one showed up first when I clicked New Posts earlier today. lol
