Cable Pull Blipper

A throttle blipper that acts directly on the cable itself, so it can mount away from the engine wherever your packaging actually allows.

Overview

What Is It

A cable-actuated throttle blipper for cars running a traditional cable throttle.

Any paddle shift gear change system needs to blip the engine on downshifts, so engine speed matches the gearbox input shaft during the change. On a car with a traditional cable throttle, that requires a pneumatically operated mechanical blipper, and this version is built specifically around the throttle cable itself. The cable passes directly through the blipper, which then acts on the outer sleeve rather than nudging a linkage. That design means the blipper doesn't need to be engine mounted at all, giving you real flexibility in where it goes.

CNC machined from aluminum billet and protectively anodized, it mounts with two bolt holes for a secure installation, and is available in two stroke lengths depending on what your application needs.

Key Features at a Glance

Direct Action on the Cable

Acts on the throttle cable's outer sleeve, no linkage nudging required.

Mount Away From the Engine

Since it works on the cable itself, it doesn't need to be positioned right at the throttle body.

Compact, Billet Build

CNC machined from aluminum billet and protectively anodized, with two mounting holes.

10 mm or 15 mm Stroke

Choose the stroke length that matches your application's cable travel requirements.

Cable Pull or Nudger?

This version passes the throttle cable through the blipper and acts on the outer sleeve, so it can mount away from the engine. If you'd rather nudge the throttle linkage directly with a blipper mounted right at the throttle body, see our Side Mount Throttle Blipper instead.

Before You Install

Installation Notes

  • Install away from direct heat sources.
  • Cut the cable's outer sleeve at the mounting point, then pass the inner cable through the blipper.
  • Shorten the remaining piece of outer cable by 28 mm and reassemble before attaching the cable to the throttle.
  • Do not strain or side-load pipework and fittings.
  • Use copperslip on hose fittings, not Loctite or PTFE tape, and aluminum or stainless steel fittings only.

FAQ

Common Questions

Which stroke length should I order?

That depends on your throttle cable travel requirements. ZC159-1 is 15 mm stroke, ZC160-1 is 10 mm. Check your cable's travel to match the right one.

Do I need this if my car has drive-by-wire throttle?

No. A mechanical blipper is only needed on cars with a traditional cable throttle. Drive-by-wire cars handle the throttle blip electronically instead.

What's the difference between this and the Side Mount Blipper?

This version passes the throttle cable through the blipper and acts on the outer sleeve, so it can mount away from the engine. The Side Mount version nudges the throttle linkage directly and needs to be positioned close to it.
