..........A bad IACV could be..........a bad IACV, its the black thing on the back of your intake manifold with a wire plug and a few vacuum hoses connected to it. I think it can sometimes be fixed by just pulling it off and cleaning it out?

i have the same problem, except i don't have a jerky throttle problem, I have a bouncy idle at lower RPM's a guy on here said reset your ECU, and clean out the IACV, but other than that, I have no clue, here is the thread where he told me to reset your ECU if you don't know how, I personally didn't know how, so it helped me.

... You can't run those 345cc injectors with your stock (240cc most likely) map! Fuel maps don't work by cc's, they work by duty cycles. If you have 75% duty cycle on a 240cc injector, it's going to put ~180cc's of fuel in... but with that same map, with the 345cc injector you're going to be dumping ~258.75cc's of fuel in.. more than your stock injectors can even flow!! Your car is most likely running very rich! Get it tuned.
