Thats interesting.
I am not sure if we need to go that high though, because the injectors on the new system are periodically opened, not always open .......still at 14.7:1, you still need 'x' no of units..

I am looking for a TPS. GM is too bulky ($80.00 too) for the space allowed but the Mitsubishi Lancer looks good.......nice and flat. But on the opposite side of the TB!

The differences that occur are that some units attach to opposite sides of the throttle bodies depending on which car they are from. Thus they move anti clockwise or visa-versa to do the job. Mitsubishi works on the outside 'left hand side' of the throttle body, whereas, the 190E shaft comes out on the inside 'right hand side' of the throttle body.

Just exchange the +5v and 0v leads over, so that it will read backwards. Because they are linear, it makes no difference to the output.
0v will still be at idle and +5v will still be at WOT. Turning it upside down won't help.

Cheers
