Default Problems with throttle?

I'm on here for my friend who has a an 05' STI. He says that his throttle has a problem. He keeps taking it in for them to do a tune up-Whatever that means. He says his car is not running to full potential.

He replaced his ECU and shocks. The subarua dealership keeps telling him its his throttle. I would like to by it off of him sometime down the road. Personally I think he needs to do an emissions test or run Seafoam through the system by taking his hose off his pcv valve and leaving hooked up to his air intake manifold and let the engine suck the seafoam in throught the hose to clean out the system. Worked on a couple of other cars I had.

Please let me know. Thanks a lot guys-Brian in Rome, GA.
