Well, I did the unthinkable.

Thanks Mr. Morad. Thank you for supplying the only piece I needed to add to the list of mods that is already way off the norm.

Genny 3 conversion is complete. AND running. But first, a fun little story.

I finally figured out the reason why I wasn't shifting. It wasn't the TPS at all (though it was flaky)...it was with the tune. MAF tuning was so far off it wasn't allowing any kind of shifting But that'* all good now

Response has improved VASTLY over the Gen 2. BUT...I need an intake system. Gonna need to hit up Intense for some tubing, AND I gotta find a new filter.

I think it works. Haven't had it up to a sustained highway speed yet (I still have to get an alignment done) but I thought I saw it engage when I eased up on the gas when in fourth gear.

The fenderwell kit will have to wait until after my dental work. I need two crowns done and I have been putting them off. So for the interim I will be using an S2 airbox and hose. But I can say that forward progress is being made. It'* tuned well enough to drive to drive around town, and starting next week I will start logging data to help me fine tune it.
