I checked my TPS, and it's at .57v.
I read the info on Speedtweaks, and was wondering(after removing brass inserts) if the way to adjust the TPS is simply by rotating the unit clockwise or counterclockwise?
Is this what they mean when they say to "turn it with your fingers"?

Do you think going from .57 to .7ish will make that much of a difference?

Yes, you are correct. When you drill out (they actually will "melt out") the brass screw guides, it allows alot of play so that the TPS sensor can be turned slightly by hand. After you drill out the brass, re install the sensor on the TB, leaving the screws loose enough to allow the TPS to turn. With the Voltmeter hooked up, turn the TPS to change the volt reading. When the reading is where you want it. Tighten the screws to hold the TPS in place. Be sure to recheck it after tightening.

You should see a notable improvement going from .57 to .7ish.

This mod is definately worth the money!!!

What money? :p

I have a question, might sound stupid but I'm a bit new to this--what do I put the negative terminal of the DMM to when I test the voltage? Neg battery terminal?
