Default TPS issues in smanager

Just got my car back together. swapped to a 70mm throttle body and used my old known working tps but now in smanager the tps reads 100% at closed throttle and will go up to around 104% at WOT.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

The issue is not related to hondata.

Sounds like your tps is the wrong tps.
Check the voltage at the tps using a multi-meter on the signal wire.

If that is the case, then you need to pull out the multi-meter and figure out what you messed up :-)
Did you by chance swap the tps & map sensor plugs?

Sounds like when you installed the TPS you didn't get the little finger on the backside of the sensor lined up with the slot on the throttle body shaft. This would make it not move as it should and then when the throttle body is fully open it may just slightly touch the tps finger. Sorry, hope this makes sense
