Very simple, you need a L8 ecu, 4wd tps, and to swap the outer two wires on the tps around.
The tps is around £35 NEW from your local ducati dealer, then obviously injectors map/chip etc to suit what you want.

They are normally around £45 with free post on begay, but have seen them for £35 at one point, a huge saving on paying the cosworth tax some want.
Just one of the many many reasons I'm glad I ditched the atiquated ecu that was in my car, tps for mine is £20 and takes but 30 seconds of laptop to set up, even if it reads opposite it can be inverted with a mouse click.

Thats a really good price for those TPS units. I'll have 100 if you can organise it, as they haven't been available for 6 months, and cost almost double that from weber direct.

Another loads of waffle then! Are you getting fucking sponsored by this company who makes these emerald ecu's? You can't reply to a question without making a smug comment about how good your ecu is and how shite everybody else's in the whole world is. You seem like a very knowledgable persons tabetha but you need to work on a little thing called "tact" of which you have none

Wow, good info. link please mate, I will buy them direct so no outlay for you,a nd I will give you £10 commission for every one I buy.

I usually buy in 100s, which is why I was the cheapest supplier of them in europe for many years. So, you stand to make a cool £1000 for a weblink to my PM box here.

Loads available off other cars mate.Pop into your local scrappy and get looking for a rusty Lancia delta,turbo 8v has a L6 weber ecu so i don't think that'll work properly but if you could source a 16v twin-cam turbo version your set(black bodied PF09).
Try and locate a scrapped Fiat coupè turbo-16v and grab the sensors off that motor,age wise the coupè's are the youngest of the lot,how about trying the fiat dealer for a new one?.
Other cars that have the same/similuer sensors including the expensive idle control valves are:Fiat tempra 1800cc twin cam engines,Fiat croma 1600cc twin cam engines(not the turbo 8v version,all Bosch stuff),Fiat tipo 2000cc 16v,Lancia dedra 1800cc...basicly every old '90's Fiat/Lancia.
Almost forgot these shitheaps,various Maserati bi-turbos,222's,224's ghiblis...
