S4 N/A TPS question

well guys i just had a quick question about my S4 N/A TPS.

my car has been having some slight hesitation problems from about 4500-redline for quite some time. i never thought it was anything but dirty injectors.

tested my old TPS today and it was giving about 3.8-4k at WOT, i figured that was too low and may be part of the problem.

im putting one on tomorrow that reads 6k at WOT to see if it helps.

could that have been part of the problem??

thanks

I highly doubt that.

well i guess it was the TPS, i just drove my car today with the one that read 6k, it runs so much better now.

with the old one on i was having a horrible hesitaiton at 3800, not just the normal hesitation, it was like it stopped getting fuel and it would violently jerk the car, i had already grounded all the ECU plugs that needed to be grounded and grounded the boost or pressure sensor and ran some other grounds trying to fix the hesitation, after putting on the new TPS there is absolutely no hesitation, its smooth all the way to redline.

just thought i'd update
