my tps voltage is at 1.109 volts right now, i cant get it below that, i can take the throttle stop srew out and it will not go below that, any one have this problem before, car runs fine, just curious, maybe more power, just a little (or not)

By setting your TPS to 0.85 volts you'll gain a smoother idle and better fuel economy.

not worried about fuel or idle, it idles at 1100 right now but it sounds bad ass [worship] , dont drive it very much so fuel isnt issue, just power and not fucking up the computer

Don't worry about your base TPS setting affecting performance [burnout]
