throttle actuator OR electronic throttle control


Explanation:
The correct term depends your context:

If it's 'only' the part that actually moves the throttle, I'd use the first term, 'throttle actuator'.

The second suggestion is correct if Gassteller refers to the "drive-by-wire" system, as opposed to a single component.
