Hey buddy. Read some months ago that removing secondary butterflies will give you more power (i don't believe that s&$t, there are there, for a reason) maybe that's why previous mechanic removed it. Although i never had a 09 throttle bodies assembly in my hands, i believe that is a correct and easy swap. As i can see, fuel rail is different, just swap it, but keep your old injectors. Keep your old baro and map sensor too. As for tps if fitting is different, use your old fitting (search at workshop manuals of both to identify which wire is 5v, signal and ground) Use same technique for secondary butterflies fitting too. Wish to live near you, would fix in 10 minutes

Well, I wish that you would live close to me as well, as we would have run into an issue. Before I read this, I figured as such. I remove the butterflies, Added them to my original throttle body. During the process. I come to learn that the bar that holds the butterflies was bent. Probably the reason why the genius that took them off in the first place did not include or left installed and at least disconnect the TPS. I knew it was missing I just figured would use the one from the purchased throttle body. picture below. so on that note, great Scott Batman!! We will not be going for a ride anytime soon. Thought? Lol
