Depends...yes they can move around a bit.

Depending on what it has programmed in for start up air flow, idle air...

The C6's do not show anything more than 80-88% WOT. Not sure why but they never go 100%.

Idle running they can be around 6-11% depending on the tune and setup of the car. Start up, engine off they can be 15-22% again depending on setup.

TPS should move with your foot. So as you give it gas it should go up, and vice versa.

ok guys i think ive found the problem . my tps sensor 1 voltage that is supposed to drop from 4v . ok as i press the pedal it starts falling and as i slowly press on down when it reaches about 2v it starts jumping erraticly to 3v,0v,2v just all around. and then the reduce kicks in.... no other volts or % does this there all smooth. SO GUY WHAT WOULD YOU THINK????????
