Unfortunately when doing some work under the hood I knocked the metal tab right off of the top of my idle position sensor. Last time I was in the junk yard I found a new one but it was in an n/a 1g. The OEM codes printed on the sensors are different as well. I would just put it in and try but I figured it'd be easier to ask on here first and avoid any possible damage(it doesn't help I'm rockin the Jack Stands look right now eiether). I'd just buy a new one too but so far the only place I've found it is on Mach V for a cool $120. So my question is will the n/a one work, and if not am i stuck paying the $120 or can i get one any cheaper, preferable OEM or better?

Should be fine. It's just an open/closed switch.

Yup, all 1G 2.0's are the same. 1.8L's might be too. But as EH said, it's just a contact switch. Just adjust it so it barely depresses all the way in.
