There's an adjustment screw on the throttle body.

...that should never need adjustment. The only time you should mess with this screw is if somebody else has already done so.

Everything on these cars is computer controlled, so if it's idling high there is a problem somewhere. Check the simple stuff like ignition timing, cam timing, vacuum leaks. Check for engine codes (just because there isn't a code showing doesn't mean there isn't one stored). Post back with what you find

The timming is set perfect. But the tps might be the problem this is a jam engine so it could have been tampered with. I know it's electronically finds the best timing and idle for the car but 1600 is way too high how do I check it using the diagnostic plug what do I jump in the diagnostic plug to find the problem. Lol kinda do t know how to read it either I'm a newbe guys.

See the MKIII FAQ section for the thread on how to check codes.... Generally a good place for a newbie to spend a LOT of time.
