how and what do i set the tps to. my car hesitates for about 1-2 seconds when revved fast from idle. the motor shakes too and there is a loud whoosh sound coming from the intake pipe. it is a lot louder than it used to be.

The TPS is the trottle position sensor and virtually can not be adjusted on a V6. It was a trick used on older 5.0's but doesn't apply on EEC-V cars.
