Xf Throttle Body & Tps Question?

[HR31-PASSAGE]

ok guys i've got an xf throttle body on my plenum with the auto rb30 TPS (yes i've done the metal plate mod) when the throttle is wide open it isn't getting 100% reading on my hand controller. when its closed it reads around 2-4 when wide open only goes to around 31. i've even tried adjusting the TPS by undoing the screws & moving it in different positions but still wont get a good reading... kinda seem like the D shaft from the throttle body that spins the TPS to give the reading isn't spinning round enough...

could i have the wrong xf throttle body?

cheers

put the std tb back on no difference unless your making big power.

second that. or mod it to rotate more.

cars going to make 400+hp i'd much rather the bigger one "xf"

how do i mod it to rotate more???

[R31Nismoid]

400hp isn't a problem for the stock one.

Infact 600hp still isn't.

yeah but still i'd rather get this one working them chase down a stock one, that will more then likely not fit onto my plenum

If you have a greddy mani, a vh45 90mm tb bolts straight on.

You can bolt the stock tps to it aswell.

i was just looking at some of them. i dont have a greddy mani tho. does the fx throttle body have the same 4 bolt pattern on each of them???

Ok I've put my mates stock rb30 throttle body & tps on to check if it's works correctly but when i set the tps to 0 then open the throttle fully it's only reading up to 50% on my wolf hand controller. Is there any way to set 0 when it shut then 100 when it's WOT full throttle??? Because I can't think of anything else to do...

if you have a aftermarket ecu you can calibrate the throttle.

Yeah as guilt just posted you need to calibrate the tps travel and voltage to the ecu's end points.

So pretty much my tuner hasn't set it right from the start when I got it tuned yeah?

I called them last week & they said I need to get the tps working correctly before they can tune it, but it's never worked right after I got it tuned anyways...

Can they defiantly calibrate it via the ecu? In other words set 0 then 100 yeah???

Cheers guys

Yes you can set the limits in the ECU, eg flatten the accelerator and see what volts it gives, this is your max volts, then close the throttle and see what the volts are, this is your min voltage eg your limits. Should be very easy to do this.

I had a look but I have no idea how it works. It says TPOS off = 0% TPOS on = 2% how exactly do I set it?

[Rolls]

That is when it goes from the idle map to you are using the throttle map I think. There should be limits that can be set or calibration etc for it.

[STATUS]

take it to another tuner, if they cant set the tps then how can you trust them to do the important tricky stuff.

Fixed thanx rolls for pointing me in the correct direction I got hold of the wolf manual & states every step

Anyone else needing the manual here is the link>

yay... we worked out how to calibrate a TPS.

try setting up a e-throttle on a vipec lol

Any reason to use an electronic throttle? Retro fitting a cable be annoying? Or are there advantages to actually using it?
