yeah I saw those ones from brands hatch but no idea how good they are or aren't, pretty good price and apparently they check all before they get sent out.
if you get one let us know how you get on with it!

Yes, price range is from 200 - Ł220 atm.
As we are talking about rare items. Saw a genuine TPS PF09 for Ł280.

Ferrari want nearly Ł1000 for a pf09 as there fitted to the F40 and there are 2 on that engine the other is not as expensive but that don't fit a YB.


You could be lucky and get nos 3bar from lancia for sensible money.


I'm sure MSD could source a replacement for the future as a 4 bar would be great for us boost monsters

Good point, what ones are people using that need a 4 bar?
Do Marelli do one?

It's getting to the point were a 3 bar sensor a chip and all the add on's like wasted spark and launch control are almost as much as after market management lol
