The 99 is not worth 8k especially if it has a 53 block.

Basically there is a arm in the pump the travels the profile of the plate and tells it how much to fuel, the AFC is for tuning fuel to boost, basically telling it to fuel according to boost pressure. And about the TPS, no there is no way to bypass it, I've replaced mine a few times, best thing to do with them is go buy one somewhere it has a warranty! A trick i did with my tps was i took my bad one off and kept it, then bought a new one. A few months down the road i took the bad one i kept back to the store and got another one, that way i had 2 working tps.
