problem>freakin weird>not normal
I have a s5 na intake exhaust ported motor safc..... something fishy happed tonight..... started my car... waited to warm up.. started to back out of my driveway... hit gas slipped clutch a little started backing up.... all of a sudden my car pops up in rpm... started reading 20% throttle on safc.....idle really high.... turn motor off... restarted>> idle stuck way high.. safc reads 20% throttle... funny thing is my throttle boddy is at rest during idle... tps rides the cams perfect.... even at idle when throttle body is at rest. tps 6 months old.. new when bought.... freakin weird.. its like safc or ecu took a dump... basically tps/ throttle body at rest safc all of a sudden reads 20%... wtf... freakin weird.... keep in mind car has run perfect for a while now ... and with no changes it goes bonkers.....

That's not very good trouble shooting. First, you should find out what ohms the things putting out or voltage, if for some reason the thing doesn't sit at 1v at idle, well then it either slipped off it's bracket, or something is jamming it open. Just test that it's functional and can go from like .6-5 volts or so when moving it by hand.
