They have the same ohms levels:

----------Closed--------------Full Throttle(WOT)
Narrow: -.8-1.2K Ohms ----------4.0-6.0k Ohms
Full: ---- .6- .9k Ohms --------------3.4-5.1K Ohms

Yep. The actual sensors are the same, but they have different brackets depending on n/a or TII. If you already have the bracket that matches your car, you can adapt the sensors from either to it. They're held onto the bracket with metal bands that are affixed to the bracket with little tabs. Bend up the tabs, swap the sensors, install is reverse of removal.

I liked your chart Ryan. *high-five*

Guru have you removed a tps before? don't forget that gay little screw that holds it on from the bottom of the throttle-body. If you don't want to remove the throttle-body the best way to remove it is with a small pair of vice-grips. I don't bother putting that little bastard back on either the bracket still works fine with only one screw.

Thanks GTU Fan. I had an original GTU back in 88 brand new white. Wow was that beautiful car. The car I am doing now is a GTU but I concerted to Turbo. I bought an S5 NA TPS and switched it onto the turbo bracket. I snapped one of those gay little screws off in the manifold and did not bother to take it out. no problem.
