Description

Acuity Hall Effect Throttle Position Sensor for the Acura RSX Type S K20 K20A K20A2 K20Z1 and Honda Civic Si EP3 K20A3

  • Contactless Hall-Effect technology provides increased precision and reliability over wiper-style designs
  • Fiber-reinforced composite housing is more durable than OEM sensors
  • Integral o-ring seal replaces the low-quality OEM style paper gasket.
  • Durable, rolled connector pins will not become damaged during installation like many aftermarket alternatives
  • Extended calibration range ensures each sensor can be calibrated exactly within the OEM range


    The Benefits of Hall Effect:

    Before the introduction of drive-by-wire throttle bodies, Honda used wiper-style variable resistors to measure throttle position. These OEM sensors and the many re-branded, low-quality sensors that look like them are prone to premature wear and unsteady measurements due to engine vibrations. Designed by engineers with a background in Formula 1 and LMP racing, the ACUITY hall effect sensor uses a contactless design that is highly resistant to vibrations, meaning it will give you reliable readings for many years. In addition, since the ACUITY Hall-Effect TPS is equipped with an on-board signal processor, the voltage output is incredibly smooth and consistent. The end result is improved engine responsiveness at tip-in, improved idle, and improved throttle response, especially on vehicles with stiffer than stock engine mounts.
