the throttle pedal and the throttle plate are 2 different things. Like you said, the one in the cluster is showing the throttle pedal position.NEW OBSERVATION that I noticed on the SI and repeats on the CTR: The %Throttle reading on the cluster is the peddle position. NOT the throttle. Using KTuner, one could select the actual signal to the gas valve. This can be shown when is cruise control, the %Throttle disappears. Turn cruise off or cancel, and back it comes. This is pointless to me. This reading should be signal to the car. Why? Well, one can be a WOT on the signal, and no where near it on the peddle position. I don't get why they did this.
That's just the way this ecu works. The computer looks at your torque request table for the set throttle pedal position and then calculates how much aircharge it needs and then figures out how much the throttle plate has to be open to hit that aircharge.
if you have the throttle response very sensitive, it's common to see the throttle plate fully open even if your pedal position is like 30%.
