To TPS or to Micro Switch

Which is the best way to go. I'm running a '99 vette so my micro switch would have to go under the gas pedal.

So which should I run? I've seen the TPS/Window all in one and was thinking about one of those.

So what say you all?

Thanks

I like the ease and trouble free nature of the WOT sw. Also, some of the late model vehicles do not go to 100% TPS when flooring it, some sort of traction control, so be aware out there.

Micro switch. Less headaches and more reliable.

Can anyone in a vette post a pic of how you have yours mounted below the gas pedal then? My kit should be here in about a week. If I just use the micro, I can use the extra cash on other stuff, like an A/F guage or other goodies.

I like the NOS tps/window switch.Its fully adjustabe so you can have it activate at whatever throttle position you want,it will even work on fly by wire.Have installed several of them with no problems.

If you want to be track legal, I'm pretty sure you need the regular WOT switch. I say go for the good old fashioned micro-switch. I mounted mine under the pedal also.
