Hi
I would suggest this fsult is tested using correct diagnostic computer because guesding could cost a fortune in wrong parts. Also, just because 1 car has a similar fault does not mean yours will be the same.
You could have an ecu issue, wiring connector faults etc etc.
Get it cgecked by a pro.

P0227 also indicates the throttle PEDAL position switch control Circuit.Not only the throttle position sensor at the engine.

Wow you have replaced a lot of stuff. Lets go back to the Fuel pump. When you replaced it did you replace the hose between the pump and the sending unit. These are common for splitting. Have you hooked up a fuel pressure gauge to check what pressure you have? It should be real close to 13 psi and should raise to at least 18 or 19 when you pinch off the return line.

Got to be a reason for the price difference if it's quoted from the same place.

THERE IS A TP SENSOR BUILT INTO THE THROTTLE ACTUATOR. THESE TRUCKS HAVE BEEN KNOWN FOR A FEW PROBLEMS IN THIS AREA. THROTTLE ACTUATOR IS NOT SERVICEABLE. THE THROTTLE BODY WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED IF IT IS PROVEN FAULTY. THE APP SENSORS ARE LOCATED IN THE GAS PEDAL MODULE. THESE SEND SIGNAL TO COMPUTER TO TELL IT WHERE YOUR FOOT IS, THEN COMPUTER SENDS COMMAND TO THROTTLE ACTUATOR TO OPEN OR CLOSE THROTTLE BASED ON THIS INPUT. THE SENSOR IN THE THROTTLE ACTUATOR DELIVERS A MESSAGE BACK TO THE COMPUTER TO TELL IT WHAT THE ACTUAL THROTTLE POSITION IS. IF THESE SIGNALS DONT MATCH(WHERE THROTTLE IS COMMANDED AND WHERE IT ACTUALLY IS)THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE AND THE VEHICLE COULD GO INTO A REDUCED POWER MODE. HOPE THIS HELPS YOU!

My 2010 equinox 3.0 6 cyl did the same thing, took it to auto zone to check codes at no charge. Code p2135 throttle position sensor came up, couldn't find just the sensor so I bought a new throttle with sensor attached acdelco 217 3103 easy install 4 bolts. O ring was still good. about $135 at amazon. Disconnected negative on battery cleared ck engine light. this solved the problem for me.
07 may be able to get just the tps which is on the throttle body unit if not then yes you have to replace the whole unit.
