Default throttle body sticking

hey guys ever since i first started spraying nitrous through this engine my throttle body has been sticking. the throttle body is a 70mm BBK unit and was brand new. The nitrous kit is a wet kit, but the nozzle is about 12 inches from the TB. The other thing is the throttle doesnt stick at all when the car is off. even if its warm you can still shut it off and operate it smoothly. When it is at idle though the pedal is really hard to push initally and makes driving around town a pain in the ***. Any ideas? Thanks!

might not be the throttle body but the throttle cable.

my only thought though is if the cable is the problem then why does it only do it when the car is running? Its so annoying because it just started doing it, and makes it very difficult to drive in town lol
