First, no tech will be driving the car for a day to reproduce such intermitten prolem. Second, they will be using the exact same approach ("guess and replace"), but for a lot more $$$.
Zack, your throttle body may be sticking or somehow else faulty. I do not see a reason why would it only open a little when asked to open a lot. You may want to tap into analog signals for the gas pedal and throttle positions (available at the ECU connector, see WIS) and get a better look what is going on. However, the throttle body usually sets a code when acting up.
