Default Very high idle

Alright my car was in the body shop after i got into an accident and after a few days of driving my car when i got it back i noticed that the car started to idle unusually high. when i start the car up in the morning it idles at like 3k rpm and when its warm it idles at like 1.8-2k rpm. i thougt it was my iac valve so i pulled it, cleaned, swapped it out and even blocked it off to see if it was the problem and its still the same. i noticed that when i took off the intake and i plugged up the hole, in the opening on the left of the the tb before the throttle plate, that the it begins to idle perfectly normal. if anyone has any input or had a similar problem please let me know.

btw the tps, timing and all sensors are hooked up and seems to be working properly. also there are no vacuum leaks or any leaks in the intake mani or tb gasket.

theres a screw on your throttle body that adjust idle. cant remember if screwing in lowers idle or if screwing out lowers. turn it one way and see what happens...... and is your throttle cable kinked anywhere at all?
