I wonder if Rogue would be able/willing to rig something up? IMO, he's done some pretty amazing stuff with the engine management thus far. Hopefully he chimes in.

Yes, peep is correct. This is just another reason to ditch all of these 35 year NOS mechanical parts and go with new stand alone systems like VEMS or other MAP based stand alones. Then you can run any parts that you want and are not a slave to the old ways any longer.

There's also an adapter out there for $25 or so that allows you to run a GM TPS on a 944 throttle body. Should work for the 951 throttle body as well.
The entire reason I went standalone was to migrate away from the aging/emotional Bosch parts. I got fed up with the no-starts and the anemic tune. Josh's MAF kit fixed the latter but the car simply wasn't reliable. It's been 6 months on a new harness, ECU, and a motley crew of sensors. 951 TPS, E30 coolant temp, GM IAT and MAP, custom front mount trigger wheel and sensor, AEM wbo2, and some others I'm forgetting. Starts faster and most importantly, starts every time. Zero reliability issues, plus data logging if something does go awry.

My car started showing signs of a bad TPS over the weekend. I didn't have any luck searching,but does anyone here know which GM TPS will work on the 951 (with adapter)?

thanks you rennlister racerboy's info we have leaned that the AUDI A4 TPS should be the same. Standard motor product th90 TPS.

TH90 (aka 0 280 120 431) range = 750 to 3600 ohms
961 TPS (aka 0 280 120 400) range = 320 to 4700 ohms
