Throttle blades could have gotten stuck

How would that happen? I doubt it was because the spring my TB is real strong. And it's really smooth never gotten caught or anything

What mods are done to the car and what climate are you in?

Make sure the linkage to shaft connection on the TB didn't turn. I had one that did that, very slightly at least so it only caused about a 300-400 RPM difference.

Yep you are right. I'm in Nebraska. It's damn cold right now. And yes I do have throttle body bypass. Is that what would cause that?
