AZ S5 tps

I was reading somewhere in another thread that the S5 NA and TII throttle position sensors are exactly the same except they use different brackets. Is there any truth to this? And if so, is there a way to modify the NA bracket to be used on the TII throttle body?

you can take the tps off the bracket and put it on another bracket.
Just bend the tabs and pull off the tps...

kinda true, but the S5 TPS does have two tps's in the same bracket and only one connector:



so, if you were to remove one of the top's you'd have to de-pin it from the connector...

I meant taking off both sensors from the n/a bracket and putting them both on the turbo braket.
But if you want to change out only one tps because of some odd problem then you can depin it, or cut it.
