Default Idles high but goes down if I rev it.. please help?

Hey guys im fairly new to hondas and I recently bought a del sol with a d16 vtech swap and the car after its been warmed up will idle at 1500 to 2000 and if I rev it past 3k the idle will drop down to 1200. I tried adjusting the screw on the throttle body but its tight all the way..anyone know what it could be ? I checked for vacum leaks but couldnt find any. thanks

the FICV under the TB... delete it and clean your IACV.
do you have an aftermarket TPS?

Tps is def stock if those rivets r stil in. Delete the ficv or cap the 2 nozzles n bypass it from the iacv directly to ur intake mani

Check whether the throttle cable is adjusted too tightly and clean the throttle body because the throttle plate may be sticking and not closing properly.
