    yea buy a new one. the IACV wont keep you from revving over 2500 rpm though... it will make you idle really high. The TPS is probably the problem with it not revving high, since the ecu probably is getting a signal that says the throttle is closed when it is actually open, and it limits the fuel injectors.

    btw, wtf is that ghetto rigged intake? you probably lost hp on that one. definitely did not smoothe the air flow any.

    I replaced the tps and it still wouldnt rev over 2500rpm so i took of my iacv i think the codes that were being thrown were 7 and 14 i cant remember but the tps was put on yesterday and didnt solve the problem

    Probably the FITV on the bottom of the throttle body.

    That won't make it top out at 2,500, just be a high and/or fluctuating idle...sounds like the ECU is in "limp/safemode" for some reason.

    7 is TPS and 14 is IAC. Did you reset your ecu to see if will come off or if it will come back on? CEL I mean...

    The check engine light means it's throwing a code, the only two codes you have is 7 and 14?

    seeing how youve got a LS in an EF and both the TPS and IACV require wiring modifcations id start by checking the wiring.

    i wasnt being a smart ass, the sensors dont typically go bad and especially not at the same time asshole. so checking the wiring would be a good place to start. but good luck fixing it dickhead. youre obviously pretty smart
