Default quicker throttle responce

I have a 1996 Cobra with a few mods (exhaust, x-pipe, intake, shifter). yesterday i pulled up allong side a fox body GT and when he reved his engine i could tell that his engine was "quick", meaning his engine had a fast throttle response. i am wondering what mods i could put on my cobra that would make it have a faster throttle response. Thanks

throttle response relates almost directly to HP. The more power your engine makes the easier it is for it to turn the rotating assembly, which is throttle response. Welcome to the search for HP =)

Ever try wearing platform shoes? The fatter sole should allow for quicker throttle response.
