The Si TPS will work fine on the B16...you can use a hack saw blade to notch the rivets that hold it on to the TB then unscrew them using a flatblade screw driver.

he meant because the TPS is held on with shear bolts/rivets there is no way to get it off unless you use a hacksaw or dremel tool to slot the heads. Then you can use a regular screw driver to get them off

IF you were able to use a ratchet that would mean the TPS bolts have regular bolt heads (which they don't) thats the reasoning behind slotting the shear bolts and using the screw driver to get them off. Hope this all makes sense to you now.
