Wire-Tucked Evo's?

Howcome there aren't very many wire-tucked Evo's on here? I see pretty much every other aspect of the Show 'n Shine covered except this. Only person I found after searching was my bud revvin9k (Bill) who took a step in the direction. Anybody else?

there was a thread like a year and a half ago, but there were like two pics posted, and they did a pretty good job. I tried searching but came up with no luck.

I did find that old thread a few weeks back. The only pics worth while had been removed. I ended up hiding my throttle cable when I did my int mani swap, considered injector plugs,etc. but didn't want to waste the time. Besides its not helping performance just looks that I really couldn't give 2 ****s about anyway. Moving the throttle cable alone makes a hell of a difference in the looks dept. and takes all of a minute to do.

I heard moving the throttle cable ruins performance? I've had some people say it affects performance and some say they didnt notice.

That doesn't make sense. It's a metal wire cable. I guess it could mess with the idle but that can be adjusted easily.

I dont think you can do a good wire tuck on evo like other car makes.
The throttle wire is a pretty common evo wire tuck though.... here's mine.
