No, if you leave the motor and sensor in and unplug them, a resistor would not allow the plates in the TGV to open and close properly.
I don't know if the default position of the TGV is open. If it's not, your car would run chocked. There was an attempt to create an electronic fix for the TGV years ago, there was a big thread by The Mad Scientist, I think. I don't think it ever got completed, it's not that simple of a project. The APS mechanical fix, is really simple on the other hand and works very well. These days it even sells cheap. I think Cosworth is going to come up with TGV deletes of a whole new kind...

The only way to satisfy the system is to actually link the motor and sensor mechanically, so the sensor registers the movement of the motor. The much much simpler way is to just uncheck the 4-5 CEL codes in your tuning software when you flash the car and leave the motor and sensor disconnected permanently. |

Hey guys I have a few questions. I currently have a code which is the reason I am doing the deletes. I got a set that are totally deleted so that rods can't go back in. I will be getting tuned but would already having a code cause an issue? Could I have a bad sensor that can't be tuned out with a cell fix? Also can the cob AP fix this issue? I am looking to tackle these this weekend but can't afford the car to go into limp mode. So what would be my easiest fix?

TGV CELs won't put you in limp mode.
As long as your current CEL is in fact TGV related, it can be turned off with the rest of them with the AP. |

I don't have much experience with self-tuning via the AP, but you should be able to open your map in Access Tuner Race and turn them off there, then load the map on the car directly or onto the AP and then to the car. The only reason you wouldn't be able to do this is if your current map has been locked by the tuner, in which case you would need him to turn them off and give you a new map.

apparently if you turn them off everything is A-ok...but with the lights on and the ecu expecting everything to be there it's not (for obvious reasons ) that's going to be my issue...i'll have to get tuned ASAP. or is there just some easy way around these lights i haven't found yet? aside from accessport/standalone/tractix tuning? |

I thought I read something about leaving the working valve motor/sensor assemblies hooked up (electronically)

On my ECU, the codes are P2004 through P2022. They all begin with "TGV". Of course turning them off won't mess anything up, turning off CELs will never mess anything up. The worst it will do is not flash the CEL if something bad happens, which since you don't have any TGVs anyway, nothing can go wrong with the TGV system anymore, so there's no reason to keep the TGV CELs enabled. |

I haven't done my tgv yet I was talking about the p02040 or something around those lines.
I am getting the tgv's soon so I was looking for the next code to shut off when I get those in. |

I'm debating doing the deletes in a couple weeks. I plan to go in the route of gutting the tgv's but leaving the rods in. I'm doing this because the closets tuner to me is about 3 hours away, and really don't wanna trailer my car to the place.
Currently my car has -intake -turbo inlet -GS EBCS -catless up pipe -catless turbo back -stg 2 tune at 17psi My question is, will I notice a difference with still having my stock turbo and be safe tune wise or do I really need to get my tune edited a little to notice any gains? |

Question:
How do I got about locking the TGV's in the open position? (Not about deleting my TGV's but I thought this would be a good place to ask) |

Why would you do that?
All of the drawbacks of having stock TGVs, with all of the drawbacks of having ported TGVs...there's no benefit |

Theres no point in doing that man. Either delete them or leave them alone.

If your CELs are already turned off, yes you can pull the motors and sensors completely out.
