Could you explain a bit more!! Is it revving up to the limiter without even applying any throttle? is it constant? can you explain the airfilter a bit more?

Ummm... havent got many ideas really, im no genius really, but here are some things you could try:
1. Clean air filter of your induction kit
2. Try doing a ECU test (sometimes refered to as paper clip test) and find out if any of the sensors in ur engine have faults.
A description of how to do this can be found at TOPBUZZ or an easier explanation HERE

Hope this helps solve the mystery...
