First resolve the codes that are being thrown before you do anything!
The car will NOT run right no matter what when it's throwing those codes.

Incorrect. The only code the stock ecu will throw is the map sensor code once it sees positive manifold pressure.

Concerning a tuning solution, your best bet is to have your ecu chipped/basemaped after you resolved your codes. For more information on the tuning subject, review http://www.phearable.net/tech/efibeginnerguide.html

ok so i tested the tps and here's the results
closed throttle 6.7mv
wot 3.03v
would this indicate a faulty tps
also checked the power and ground wire power was 5v and the groud was good

Could be bad but it sounds like someone replaced it and didnt set it properly. Just stuck it on and went with it.

tried adjusting it with no change and no one sells the tps for the delsol so could i use the tps from a late 90s b18 engine?

Tps sensor: http://www.phearable.net/shoppingcar...ies-p-136.html

Make sure you have the correct plug going to the tps... Some people swap the tps and map sensor plugs.
