Right. Something is causing this pressure drop. I dont know that much about this electronic throttle but if I keep my foot on the pedal at 1000rpm its smooth. But the fuel pressure still doesnt come up to specs.
How much does the TPS control fuel flow? It will run fine as long as the idle is up. As soon as I release the pedal the idle drops way below spec and it dies. The whole time though I never get a rise in fuel pressure. Im really starting to lean towards the TPS. Anyone have input on this beast?

Did you clean the throttle bore and plate?

Get off the fuel pressure and TPS. They are not causing your stalling.
