hmmm...ok, so If I'm getting you right. All that you have to do is hook up an electric motor in place of the starter and make a way for it to be triggered by your gas pedal. Then once the engine gets going it lets the motor spin with the engine as an alternator and then your foot controls the intake valve like usual....hm...seems like this could be done...not with an automatic but a manual transmission car could probably do it...
