Aaaha....that's how the caps when out, with spacers....I figured you used spacers. There is a guy running around here with those wheels with holes drilled in the center caps and dust caps sticking out.

Seriously. Just when we think we've discovered the best ways to go fast, someone has to make it even harder.

Did that TPS adjustment sensor made a difference on you car and how?? I wanted to buy one of these back in the day when I had an AOD car.

Yeah it does. Its pretty cool. The throttle response is a lot quicker and you accelerate a little bit faster. The best part is that it installs in about 4 seconds, so you can switch it for when you're just crusing to when you go racing.

Wait, did you get one of thoes little resistor things that "intercept and enhance" the TPS signal? One of thoes "adds 40+hp for $6" things from ebay?
Should get some resonater tips for the exhaust too. I hear they add like 20 hp too

NO it does not add 20hp. I didn't buy it, I got it for FREE. You probably wouldn't notice it on a Dyno, but I've felt a bit of a difference.

What they tell the engine is a different position for the throttle:
Actual Adjustment
20% 40%
50% 70%
70% 100%
approximately...therefore, faster throttle response.

Sorry Ryan.

that adjuster only works if you have direct inject exhaust.
