| With a typical throttle the rate of increase to open area increases up to the 50% throttle opening, after this point the rate of increase to open area decreases up to 100% throttle opening. With an off center throttle cable pulley you can overcome this on half of the effect, with a shaped throttle pulley you can completely overcome this. But then comes the issue of boost, with a throttle by wire system (with a capable engine management system) you can program a ecu to compensate for the turbos ramping up too quickly. Basically this would be good for traction control, hitting the throttle in a corner you don't really want the turbos to kick in so quickly. Throttle by wire would allow you to basically make the accelerator pedal into a torque selection device, giving the car a generally "responsive feel" at the expense of removing the maximum available power. Not to take away from your question but additionally my question is: why not throttle bodies BEFORE the turbos?
