the tps is factory calibrated, if you think that you can do better, you must remove the one way screws holding on the tps, replace them with a allen bolt or something else then adjust the tps with a multimeter at closed throttle and open throttle. you can also check your mid way adjustments after those 2 values are set. check the spec in your owner's manual. BUT as far as i remember, all honda/ acura tps values in that year range are the same....

What is a multimeter and how do you adjust the tps while the throttle is closed and open. I also have this sluggish problem with my b16. I got this problem after a few days i got my fuel injectors cleaned. Then a code popped up and i hook it up to a scanner and and I got a PO505 Idle Control System Problem.... What is that?

Multimeter looks like this.

I believe what LRC is suggesting is that you manually try and adjust the TPS so it reads correctly. I wouldn't bother with that cause it seems to complicated. Wiggle this way and that way then tighten it once you got it right.
