Didn't happen to me on a Porsche, but in a Chevy truck I had the same issue. For me it was the fly by wire control. I was told the fail to idle is the answer to the old Audi 5000 issue where they would accelerate uncontrolled because the failure mode was WOT. I would look there first based on what you wrote. I had an 84 911 that had fuel pressure regulators fail, but the symptoms I had were it stalled when the throttle was pressed. It got the air, but the regulators weren't pressurizing to give it enough gas. Mechanic took a while to figure it out because he told me he had only seen them fail open causing flooding not fuel starvation.

Had you changed any of the motor mounts to solid or semi solid. It was one of the side effect I had at track when I changed to Wevo's
