throtle body cleaning?

Along with cleaning out the flame trap, and throttle body, I would also clean out the intercooler, and idle by-pass. Cleaning everything except for the idle control/idle by-pass may still leave the symptoms you have now.

Also, make sure you use a high quality intake cleaner that is O2 sensor and catalytic convertor safe. I do this on my 855T once a year, along with an engine flush and BG for the fuel injectors. And every time, it's like a totally different engine.
