i don't quite understand why it's running at 50% throttle... SiR-II.. B16? if the throttle opens and closes all the way, and the TPS is working correctly, you're fine running the original TB that came with the motor.

if the TPS is broken then i would say yeah you need a new TB. don't be fooled though, stock manifold/internals=stock TB size. all you'd need is a replacement, not a $200 "upgrade."
