Default TPS mounting position on aftermarket throttle body?!

I'm using a OEM tps on an aftermarket throttle body. The tps when mounted isn't at the spec voltage. I trimmed the tips and rigged it on the aftermarket throttle body and it works fine but it is in need of constant adjusment. Is there a adjustable tps or adapter plate for the OEM tps I need to buy?

There shouldn't be any need to trim anything. You simply mount the tps and turn it to get it to .45 closed, then tighten it down and recheck. As long as it's at .45 closed you're done.

I've been setting it at 5.1-4.8v depending on where I can get it to stay. If you mount it at the stock location it is no where close. That's why I was wondering if there might be a aftermarket tps with an adjustable mount

Default

anywhere from .45-.50 will do fine

If you cant get it in that range its probably not in the two black tabs ... look more closely to how it lines up
