how does a lighter flywheel lose you torque?

the TPS is a linear resistance vs agle so if you apply a constant voltage to it, as you rotate it, the voltage across it changes linearly. that happens regardless of what measuring device you put on it (i.e. which ecu).
if the measuring device you put on is analogue, i.e. an old school voltmeter with swinging needle, then you can measure that voltage as finely as the scale on the device. if you had a meter that was a kilometer wide and had a marking every 1mm you could measure it in 1 million 'sections', i.e. every 0.000005V
if the measuring device has an 8 bit analogue to digital converter like an old ecu does, that voltage, say 0 to 5V, can be measured in 2 to the power of 8 'sections', i.e. 256 sections, or every 0.02V
a more modern ecu would probably have a 16 bit ADC and could measure that 5V in 65536 sections, i.e. every 0.00008V.
however, none of that would really matter if you only had a map in the ecu that had 2 break points in it at 0V and 5V.
