I've just got my car running again after some upgrades.

Its got an FMIC, FFIM w/Accufab TB, Electric cooling fans, Aeromotive FP regulator set to 42-43psi at idle?- pulsation dampener eliminated. Everything else is still stock.

I have the 3 wire TPS on the accufab wired as best I see fit using the diagram in the TSRM. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=FI&P=101

VC - Voltage reference/ 5V to TPS
VTA - Sigal back to ECU
E2 - Ground
What does IDL do?

With the TPS hooked runs fine at idle. But at anything other than idle it cuts in and out/revs up and down.

With it unhooked it runs ok at any RPM. But under WOT I get no feul enrichment...runs at 15-15.5 AFR at wide open, which is bad.

Is there another way to wire the TPS or do I need to go ahead and get myself the MAFT-pro thats been on my list?

Sorry for the lengthy post...did my best to explain all I know about whats goin on. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Thanks so much in advance for any help!!!

Redacted per Title 18 USC Section 798
IDL is used for a bunch of important things and needs to be grounded when the throttle plate is closed and floated when the throttle plate is open. If your TPS doesn't have a contact to accomplish that you'll need to add a separate switch...

I think I figured it out. I had the IDL and VTA wires backwards. And now when I go wide open it goes rich instantly. Still stays rich when I let off but I think I have a fix for it. I'm gonna run a switch from ground to IDL that closes when the throttle plate closes.
