Testing TPS is done with the TPS installed and connected, key on, engine off. Leave the connector pluged in and back probe the (+) center terminal and the (-) black wire. Throttle closed should read greater than 200 millivolts and throttle full open it should show ~4.8 volts.
(200 millivolt = .200 volt)

more tests shown here:

Dumb question, but did you make sure that the kickdown linkage is all hooked up and functioning properly? I had an issue where it came loose one time and it wouldn't shift until it was redlining.

you must have the racing package offered by jeep.

I heard you can do 0-60 in 23 seconds with that model.
