single throttle body> quads

[NOLAW]

im in the process of changing from a single throttle body to blacktop quads on my 16v, my question is can a swich the throttle positioning sensor from the single throttle body onto the quads? or do i have to change the plug to suit the sensor on the quads?

any help would be greatly appreciated
cheers

you will need the black top tps to make these work and after market ecu as well ,wiring the tps will be different as well

[NOLAW]

oh ok, cheers, yeah iv got a link g3 which i had recently wired up so will there be much wiring to change or is it just a matter of changing the plug?

[NOLAW]

any more opinions or did he hit the nail on the head?

plug should be same, depending on which engine and yaer the single throttle off.

[matt dunn]

nope will need a rewire from memory,

as the quads throttle shafts rotate the other direction, and so the pins in the plug are reversed, i.e. the earth that was at one end is now at the other.

Dont remember what model I struck it on, but it can happen.

ohk im not sure what year its off but il try it out when i see ma car again and see how it all works out, cheers guys

pretty sure yours should be the same as your motor is a reasonably l8 model 4AGZE (Small port, CAS)
you'll have to use ur TPS as the 20V turns the wrong way

oh so would i actualy be better off using the TPS off my single thottle body rather than the one off the quads?

No what were saying is on the quads you must use a 20V TPS as they are not interchangable with 16V

and the 20V tps uses different wiring to the others.

yeh use 20v tps. 16v plug will fit, pins are back to front, thats all. just swap them over in the plug. easy.
