suggest good dose of lube on the shafts on the throttle body and suggest spray some WD40 into end of throttle cable on engine and make sure its not got any loose play in it, because - depending on how slack the spring and/or cable is - boost can hold a TB open a little...! Ever had the TB off, had the springs wound back etc ? the AAC plug still off ? Also take off the FICD plug too. And take off the plug to the Air regulator. got to eliminate a few things, please answer all questions, cheers

Maybe replace your throttle cable... Might be a chance that it is kinked somewhere under the insulation that you cant see...
