This isnt for my e28, but im MSing my e21 and i have an m20 throttle body for it. Which is the easiest TPS to use, e34 525i m20? E36 m50?

The e36 M50 works with a simple adaptor plate, and plugs right into the stock harness. Thats what I chose.

A Kia or Hyundai TPS is also the pot type that you need. Again, simple adapter plate to make it work.

OK, so you gotta use an adaptor either way. And my car doesnt have a harness, its CIS right now so ill just make the wiring anyway. Thanks

I see. I should have said it plugs right into the Motronic harness.

e32 and e34 automatic m30 cars have the perfect TPS, bolts right onto the throttle body

Bolts right up to an M20 throttle body? Perfect thats exactly what i was lookin for. I could use an adaptor but id really like a nice clean installation.

Are you putting MS on a 323i? I just finished doing this. Used an m50 tps, with adapter plate, once tb is installed you cant even see the tps.
