Start the car up to drive home and I'm back to the same issue I was a year ago, 2.4v when flooring it until 4k rpm, then BAM wide open throttle. I didn't touch the maps at all... days like today make me want to switch over to ecutek.

When was the last time you clean your throttle bodies? Maybe it is gummed up? The more filmed build up around the butterfly plates, the more the sensor adjust your baseline throttle and screw up the sensor reading? Not really sure if cleaning it might help? Just be careful not to open the plates when cleaning it. Work around while while it is close. It can be cleaned this way since I had done it once and I could feel the smooth acceleration after resetting the ECU using the pedal sequence reset.
