My friend is going threw the SAME problem right as we speak.. Well what you can try, is spray the T/B with some break cleaner when the motor is Off and ON..

When its off your just trying to clean out the inside of the T/B (maybe its getting gummed up and just needs to be cleaned out alittle) then while the motor is running your checking for air leaks.. when and if you spray somewhere like the intake manifold or the T/B plemum area listen to see if the motor revs up, if so you have a leak somewhere..:notnice:

Try that and see what happens, also check your MAF sensor and your intake system, I.E your air filter... then re-set your computer and disconnect the battery..
 
Sheesh, that was hard to read. Try moving the butterfly on the throttle body with the car off to see if there is any binding there. If not, check the throttle cable someplace between the foot and engine.
 
Have you ever cleaned your TB? If not, take it off and clean it either way .. it will only help and is probably your issue. If you are concerned about the so called "protective coating" on the TB, use 3M throttle body cleaner. Its safe and works excellent.

If its not that, then its the throttle cable getting caught up somewhere (as previously mentioned).
