OP wants tps for standalone not stock 6 pin one.

I think it is, turning it feels like it's potentiometer.

For those looking for replacement on stock cars, audi's 2.7 turbo tps # 078 133 154 looks very similar to 951's.

It seems the TPS I found are NLA as well. What about the 928 or 911 TPS's? http://www.ebay.ca/itm/OEM-BOSCH-TH3...3D282107345656

Has anyone looked into these before?

If you can A) get the shaft to work and B) add an "adapter harness", there are a few Nissan TPS that have 2x 3-pin connectors - one is a idle/wot switch and the other is the variable-voltage pot for throttle position. Perhaps their output is about right...

I don't use the idle/WOT switches for standalones, the only actual input I use from the TPS is for enriching the mixture upon transience (you step on the gas quickly, the ECU adds more than usual fuel because of the quick change). I can pretty much calibrate any TPS as long as it bolts up somehow.

Right now, base case is to find a basic VAG TPS that doesn't require any real effort to adapt, only because I know it's out there.

Paging Peep...where'd you get the pot-type TPS for VEMS?

Sorry for bad picture, but here is My BMW tps

I used Audi 2.6, 2.8 (12v), 4.2 (ABZ, from A8, also 3.7) TPS.

Here's what's inside a stock turbo TPS.

Potentiometer pins 1, 2, & 3 (wiper) go to the KLR. Idle switch pin 6 goes to the DME. Pin 4 is GND. Pin 5 is not used.

I this unit, the micro switch got stuck in the closed position so the DME thought I should be idling no matter what the potentiometer was telling the KLR.

I hung onto it knowing I can replace the switch and use it again if I have to.

Bruce's TPS test procedure is a good reference.

Hi guys,

I found something that should be feasible.
I helped with getting Measquirt set up on my buddy's E30 and the TPS is basically the same the NA 944. I tested my 951 TPS on the E30 throttle body and it worked perfectly, calibration worked flawlessly. So I know that the M20 platform has the same fitment as the 944/951 (951 TPS bolts up to NA throttle body). Since there's a larger aftermarket for E30s, this adapter exists:

The adapter allows the use of a common E36 (M50) sensor. It's 3-pin and offers potentiometer functionality. Cheap, reliable, plentiful, fits the bill. Here is the data and the PN for the M50 TPS:
