rev bounce at idle

Hi there
my car seams to have a rev bounce at idle between 1600 and 1800 i took it to my mechanic and they looked all over it and came to the conclusion that the tps was not the right one for my throttle body??

i have a aftermarket 70mm throttle body, do the stock tps work on these or will i need a new one?? or is this not the problem

btw done full boost leak test and everything is fine there

i dont see why a TPS would be causing you to idle so high. You probably need to readjust your BISS Screw to get it idling where it should be.

There is a good chance a tune will fix the problem. What mods does the car have or atleast what has been changed since the last tune? Any issues I have ever had with idle is a MAF problem or a tune problem.

Yah im pretty sure you just need a tune. you are probably hitting a load cell that has some funny timing in it or something that you normally wouldn't be. Im also thinking that 70mm throttle body cant be your only mod, so definitely go get a tune.
