Yes, you can just throw in a throttle cable for a non TC car. I did this a while back when deleting my cruise control and TC after the TC motor went bad. As a plus, the engine compartment looks much less cluttered as well!

From what I've read, a 3 channel rear only has one sensor on the differential/carrier housing and the reluctor ring is actually inside the pumpkin (I haven't actually checked it out myself, but I would guess you just look for a single harness/wire plugging in somewhere on the pumpkin). A 4 channel rear as an ABS sensor on the end of each axle tube, one for each wheel (in which case I assume you'd identify it as such by looking for a split harness/wire running to each rear wheel).

Hope that was helpful

if you have traction control its 4 channel. also look at the abs unit. if two lines go in and three lines out its 3 channel. two in and four out its 4 channel.

thats what i thought but when i unplug the TC motor it turns of my abs. does someone know if you can put in a resistor on the plug so it thinks its hooked up?i know slp sells a part that reverses the switch (keeps it off until you turn it on)but i want to get rid of the stupid motor. sorry if im highjacking
