Check if you have any vacuum leak or not. That can cause high idle too.
First thing I checked. No leaks. It's pretty common for clueless people like myself to ruin a perfectly good tb just trying to clean it. What I notice is when the car is off tps.cmd is 4 then when I start the car it goes up then settles back at 3. Never goes to 0 even though tps is 0. When I give it gas then let off tps.cmd stays where it was for 2 seconds then very slowly drops back to 3. Definitely broken. I will never force the butterfly of a tb open to clean it again. I also went crazy with the cleaner which probably didn't help.

3-4% is a pretty normal value since the ecu controls the idle with the TB.

Prior to cleaning the TB I was seeing 0 at idle. One thing I noticed today is at WOT tps was showing 114. Is that normal? I did not get the new tb installed, I was sent the wrong one and it'll be Saturday now.
*EDIT* I see that 114 is normal so disregard.

114 is normal.
