the red one is the fast idle cam the thing its pushing on is the thermowax, this is what gives you a fast idle when the engine is cold.
the other thing is the dashpot it keeps the throttle blades from snapping shut a) to reduce wear on the throttle shafts and b) for emissions between shifts

Page 4A-56 of the online manual at http://www.iluvmyrx7.com/Technical_I...ice_manual.htm When you understand the relationship of the thermowax and the fast idle cam (and the throttle stop screw that they never ever mention), you can see why you have to have the car at full warm before setting the tps. You can check the thermowas by pouring boiling water over it and watching the piston extend and retract with temperature.
