It could of been fitted to the 1.8 and xsi as they do a throttle body for this engine for the 406 which has a throttle solenoid for the cruise. Might be possible to retro fit that but then you would need all the relevant switches and ECU to control it. Too much hassle imo. |

I guess a properly weighted brick would do the job too ________________________________________ ''Oh, it does handle like a golf!'' Why drive a Golf....when you can drive a GTi-6? |

I just find that a brick on the throttle pedal in 3rd gear gives good motorway speeds, fuel economy deteriorates slightly but I think it's more than justified for the comfort________________________________________ 205 GTi Red - G939 RTU - Died!306 GTi 6 Diablo - Being resurrected!

It would be easier to do it via aftermarket management that has the capability already built in. As always, anything is possible, just depends how deep the pockets are... ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |
