are your rpms messing up? When my throttle body messed up my car would rev up by its self in park.The rpms would shoot up and when i would drive i could let off the gas and the car would keep driving by itself.

A ported throttle body will need to be compensated for in the tune otherwise your dals are thrown off severely causing drivabilty issues like you're having.
