when i push the revs to about 3k, then let off the gas really fast, sometimes the engine jumps 400 more rpms before starting to drop

Yeah, just last night, when I hold the clutch-in ( I have 5-speed ) to start my car, the rpm revs up in down, to about 1100 down to 800 and back up again, just for a few seconds, then levels at just under 1k.. its wierd..

its because of the throttle by wire system, the tac is a little delayed. you will also notice that you actually hit redline before the tac says so

Yes. I've had this problem on our 2.2LS auto as well. With the car off, if you're fiddling with the cd player, like, say, changing cd's or something, it will jump around a little bit. I had it happen once in my in-law's Impala SS too, but i'm still not comfortable with it.
