K Tuned Hall Effect TPS

Has anyone tried the above TPS? I'm having issues on the Teg and need to get it sorted before selling. I'm on a Skunk 70mm throttle body and I've done the usual cleaning of the IACV etc. But I swapped my TPS for a cheap EBay jobbie, but wish I hadn't bothered. It solved my Rev hunting, but has now got me sat at 2000rpm and with an EML light on. The previous TPS didn't fire up a code at all but wasn't right. I'm looking at the K Tuned Billet or Hall Effect sensor to see how I go. Anyone with any experience, or just even some advice as I'm starting to lose my temper with it now and just need to sell the car.

Cheers, Darren.

Non OEM sensors are known to fail even from new no matter where they come from so if you have calibrated it then send it back or bin it, I've gone through plenty an so have TDI North

Never tried the hall Effect TPS but do know TDI North have started using them due to the other poorly made ones

firstly, well done tegiwa for being £30 more than your rival, good start to your new years resolution to tackle your competitors head on.....

secondly, what is the difference between the hall effect tps and the non hall effect, also the non hall effect is costing more?

ive read that it uses magnets etc. which i understand as that resolves any vibration issues.,


just wondering why it is cheaper than the standard TPS they do, as the technology seems better, therefore assumed it would cost more..

The hall effect TPS is a lot more expensive than normal sensors ??

Were about £70 ish for normal TPS last time I had one

I am shocked! Didn't think these could be affected by vibration damage. Under warranty I'd hope? My tegiwa oem blueprint is still going
