Once warm the engine hunts between 1000-2000 rpm. If I tap the throttle it jumps up and then still just sits high rpm, say 3000 again for a bit. Throttle has returned to normal position at that point but still screaming high rpm.

I've cleaned and swapped the IAC, brand new MAF, coils/plugs. No DTC codes present or pending. This one is getting me stumped. When its sitting at RPM its smooth, no misfires or pings.

If the throttle is closed and the idle is hunting I'd think it woudl be the IAC, maybe its the throttle-valve switch below the IAC? Would O2 sensors cause a wild idle?
O2 sensors are just give feed back info about something that has already happened.
So they would not be the cause of the issue.

I am not familiar with the throttle-valve switch. What is it's function???? Does it kick the IAC in at idle??? If it is IAC related it could be an issue.

Try unplugging the MAF again and do a dead cold start let the engine warm up with MAF unplugged. If things act normal with the MAF unplugged then My mind says it has to be intake air related in some way. Wrong MAF, MAF wiring Issue, Something MAF related. Or perhaps this throttle-valve switch you mentioned.

The only other air intake thing I can think of would be a vacuum leak.
But I would think it would have to be rather big to cause these issues.
