I have a TPS that Im not sure about, is there a way I can test it without putting it on the car?

Check it with an ohm meter, as you would if it were on the car, to see if any spikes or drops, and to be certain it is 4/6 K ohms when fully extended.

So the values will be the same as if it were on the car?

Without the idle stop it will read near 100 Ohms (+-100) fully compressed.
