pretty easy to do. i did it a while ago, you can pretty much look at it for a sec to figure it out. im not so good at the splainin tho so ill let somebody else do that, but you may try just lookin at it if you havent yet.

step 1, find the 2 bolts that hold the cable onto the throttle body and loosen them.

step 2, adjust the cable and tighten the bolts. Don't overtighten!

Should I add this to the how-to forum?

Just that it makes the throttle response a little quicker. You don't have to take up the slack before you open the throttle body. Minimal if anything, but it's free and easy, so why not make the car react as well as possible.
