Im confused what your asking jerry....

Are you asking if you should reuse the stock TPS on your new throttle body?

Or

Use the New Throttle body.....run it without a TPS until you buy a new sensor?

You cant swap the stock TPS to the Blox Throttle body and it will be just fine

the blox tb doesnt come with a tps on it you have to put either the tps from your stock tb or the one from your gsr tb, either way you have to take one off

Not everyone knows that, so the answer is profit.

You dont need a new one.....the reason people just buy new ones is because of the bolts they use on the factory ones....you have to cut the bolts off with a dremel to get the tps off. It's not hard to do, it just scares people

if you don't have a dremel, you can use a hack saw and cut a line on the top of the bolts. then use a flathead screwdriver to get 'em out.
