Hello,

I've recently purchased a 2006 Gts that I was told the throttle body/ecu was bad on. I've found an oem throttle body with key cylinder and key would this bypass the need for programming?

Thank you.

Yes, it should. Hopefully there's a good back story about why that GTS was totalled so there's a good chance the parts are AOK.

The 06 gts I purchased was belong to a friend of mine he purchased it used with title. He rode it quite a bit until it started running rough. He found that the manifold was leaking and had been repaired with electrical tape.

The throttle body and key set I bought was on ebay being sold by a motorcycle recycler.
