well, there ain't know way your rpm's can rise abnormally unless there is MORE air getting in there that is supposed to be at idle.

So either air is getting by your new TB or you have an exhaust leak. But I would rule out the IAC just yet. Maybe swap with a friend if you can to see if that fixes it. Or go buy a new one. If that doesn't fix it just return it for a refund.

If its not the IAC....you have a vaccum leak or TB leak.

I'm not sure if you need a tune for a new TB and MAF...but maybe.

You could put all your old stuff back on and see if it runs normal again, then you'll at least know its directly related to those parts.

Maybe just put the old MAF back on and see if that fixes the issue. That will only take a few minutes.

I would think the TB is the problem, but who knows till you weed things out.

Do the MAF, see what happens.
