Default Gas Pedal Shakes at 7500-8200 rpm

Ever since I installed my JRSC, my gas pedal has been shaking almost violently at times at 7500-8200 rpm in every single gear.

It did this when i ran the JRSC at stock timing with no boost going for a while, and then it still did this at the exact same rpm range when i retarded the timing and added the SC belt in order to run boost.

Anyone ever ran into this problem of their gas pedal shaking.

I'm thinking its gotta be something to do with my throttle body, or the throttle body cable, but when I looked over it, I had no leaks from coolant lines, the cable was properly tightened, and everything looked fine.

any ideas?

its not your engine thats shaking? The pedal shouldnt be shaking side to side, i assume its shaking forward and back right?

you try reving it up in the driveway? This problem is only going to get fixed if you start looking at the engine bay while its happening.

You've checked the support bracket right? Everything is as tight as it can be?
