alright, turbo n/a done i'm still waiting on my EMS firmware problem to be fixed so i am still on the n/a ecu. Just for reassurance i knocked the timing back 5-7 degrees from base for boost purposes.

Alright so this is the weird thing, really rough/irratic idle down below i've checked everything through and i'm pretty sure i have no vaccume leaks since everything is blocked off and i rechecked everything. It'll sometimes idle at 1500 then down to 900 rarely. the weird thing is when i let off the throttle above 3K it'll stay at 3K, the SAFC is showing 0% throttle opening so i can be pretty well assured nothing is binding up with the linkage, only unitill i stick it in gear and drag the engine rpm down past 3000 will it return to its old irratic idle. Just some weird issues i want to get out of the way before i start tuneing.

Come to think of it, after i put my motor back in i didnt ground it anywhere besides the starter This may have some effect shouldnt it? BTW I have nothing emissions related on the car, no BAC..nothing pretty much.

RETed

How did you plug up all the holes after removing all that emission stuff?
Block off plates?
One could be leaking...

i Jb welded the ports off on the back of the intake, I have a block off plate on the ACV spot and the BAC spot, so i'll try playing around with Carb cleaner today.
