Is your car doing a sustained Rev to 3k? or is it just hitting it then coming back down? Honestly I think your TPS might be out of adjustment as Ted said. The Accelerated Warm-up Procedure should hold the 3K rev for about 10 seconds or so. It doesn't work and needs to be eliminated if possible (or at the very least not allowed to kick on: By starting it in gear as awizzle414 said).

Check your TPS make sure it's reading 1v if you're setting it via voltage test style. I would also highly recommend upgrading your ECU to RTek2.1 and don't look back. But then again it might be more than you want or need... but come on you know you want to. Do it. Come on. It'll be fun.
