If you can get it towed, tow it. If you cannot, then NO WOT driving. cars can run lean when its not 100% throttle. Most good tuners can set up cars to do that.

what i am most worried about is the difference in the throttle body size... i had a tps sensor that was only .2 off and the car ran like complete ****.... wondering if it will even be driveable with the huge difference in throttlebody size.

TPS volts is alot different then the size of the TB. At a given throttle opening. The PCM does not like when the TPS volt is not in spec, especially if it is a automatic since it relies on the infomation. I know what your talking about. Most people slot the TPS for adjustment, thats what I did on my old LT1 car, worked great.
