throttle repsonse Options

[rjbibeau]

hey guys i'm helping my girl with a mr2 3sgte swap. we have everything back together and the engine fires over and idles and all of that. it has throttle response when parked but when you try to drive it it hits a brick wall at about 3k and another at 4k or so then doesn't go past that. we unplugged the tps and the first brick wall goes away but the 4k is still there. i was reading the bgb on adjusting the tps but i don't really see what is supposed to be done. something about a feeler gauge. any ideas of what else it could be. it throws a knock sensor code. could this be the brick wall problem?

You won't find that in the BGB, as far as I know. The knock sensor is actually an electret microphone bolted on to the engine block with a certain frequency response, nothing more. GM and other knock sensors are the same way too, and they are all similar in that way. Post up what you find.
