Wish I could help you out. I have never heard one good thing about replacing the TB on these cars....seems like it always gives people problems. I'm not touching mine.

What is the point of installing a BBK throttle body? There is no power gain and it makes your car run like crap. If you had researched this first you would have found that everybody who installed one regretted it.

the spring inside that you switched out is your problem. when you moved it from one tb to the other tb it sounds like you didnt adjust and prime it right. so the spring isnt doing what it should. I agree with above that there no after market tb that is consistent. so i would advise to go back to stock or look up the proper spring pressure and then reattach.

I bought the GMS one and it did the same exact thing. There's no point to getting one unless you're F/I, and then you should probably upgrade to the GT500 TB.
