You can trick the ecm for free....


You will need a digital VOM meter.

Using the blue (+) and black (-) wires from the TPS, set the TPS voltage to .62 by loosening the TPS and moving it until desired voltage is shown.

This will trick the ecm into going into power enrichment mode at 50% throttle instead of 75%.
