OK. As far as I can tell the pump achieves full speed (100%) @ 3.7V and min speed (25%) @ 0.5V which means it has a resolution of 25- 100% speed in 3.2 V.
You will need a 5V supply to achieve the best control. Otherwise, if you will be using a 12v supply, aprox only 25% of full TPs movement will give you 25 to 100% speed control and it's likely to be nearer 20% movement once the alternator is running. So pretty much like an on/off switch anyway.
If you just require the TPS to control the pump you can't get much easier than what Aeromotive recommend using a simple micro switch. Again the "on" (100% speed position) can be set to wherever you feel comfortable with throttle wise.
