It isn't an awful code. It isn't going to hurt the car. I don't know if it will affect some of the performance features of the car though (acclelerator pump etc...)
Most peope get it when doing a home job on the throttle body (grinding stops etc...). It can also be thrown by a bad connection.
Check you connections to your throttle body. Make sure that there is no water, dirt or anything in the wheather plugs. A bad TPS sensor can also throw the code.
Try swapping throttle bodies with a buddy and clearing the code to see if it is the TPS sensor.
Good Luck
