Well, I got one for this problem.  Worked for a car with a similar injection

 You might enlarge the air inlet into the TB just a little.  Mine, I
enlarged a little half/round air bleed that was there to allow air past the
Throttle body plate.. I used a small jewlers drill and brought my idle up on
a racecar that used to die on me as I entered corners...not good, no
throttle to catch the rear end with ...
