i cannot give my car basically any throttle at all or is bucks and jerks. Its running lean, and on the digonistic my tps stays at 2.344 and does not go up or down. I do not get any boost at all and if you give full throttle the car just revs to like 3 grand and then just dies down to like 15 or 2 grand. Very weird. I just need some insite thank you.
 
If the tps signal doesn't change when you open and close the throttle plate, then you need to get a new sensor. My sensor was bad and I got a lot of bucking when trying to really step on it, replaced the sensor and it all went away. Test and make sure your tps is functioning correctly with a multimeter.

About your revving problem tho, it sounds like you might have a big boost leak. Did you check for one?
 
no boost leak thanks thou the bad tps is why my car is running this way I now need to get a spacer because the throttle body does not fit. good luck to me
