New manufacture TPS? Anyone tried one?

So I guess some companies are making new TPS's for our cars. I've seen a few made by Blox on ebay for $19 + shipping. Are these any good?

I bought one recently and it even came with some Allen head screws, so you don't have to dremel a notch in the cut-bolts.

It works

The problem with OEM sensors is that you either have to buy a throttle body or find a used TB/sensor.

I'm not sure if the Blox is more/less accurate or lasts longer/shorter. Time will tell I guess.

Well it seems to be working better than my used one which started having a flat spot when light on the throttle. Unfortunately the random and unsolvable 3 - 4k hesitation remains unsolvable

I am having that flat spot with my NEW TPS, but then again, I never really calibrated it the right way.. I need a digital multimeter and then we'll see where i'm at..

Eh did you just slap it on? These things are really sensitive to even the slightest movement. I keep the multimeter attached while I tighten the screws to make sure it doesn't wander off by much
