Default Engine Reving up on its own to redline!! HELP!

Hey ppl!

hope you can help me here, my engine seems to be going mad!!!

so i start the car , take it for a small drive, ive come to a halt at the traffic lights and now my engine seems to be reving to 7-8K on its own!!!??!

I dont quite understand this and its now done it several times!!

Ive replaced the throttle body, including map sensor etc, ive reset my Kpro however none of this has made a differance! also made sure accelarator is not sticking,

Currently the car is running a Toda Manifold with a spoon system.
AEM CAI, all mapped on a PRB Kpro.
Its only recetly started doing this.

Car is an EP3

anyone with any ideas of what could be causing this??
