Sometime (but not all the time) when i step on the gas hard and then let off and put it in nutral and the rpms are stil at like 4500 or 5000 sometimes and i have to hit the gas again 2 or 3 times to get it to stop, is the the TB( which is still stock) or is it the acelerator cable?

more than likely the cable/linkage binding up, but i've seen TB butterflys stick to the walls of the TB.
