Can having removed 5/6 ports cause your car not to idle properly ?

My car idles really bad when i first start it up, it idles like a dirtbike...needs to be revved till it holds idle itself , it also hesitates when its revved fast when its first started and will actually stop revving and backfire (it didnt always do this), ive raised the idle on numerous occasions , but it will always start up with a surging idle and it will stall out.

I have my BAC removed, all emissions (pcv), airpump, i have no cat engine is streetported also have the throttle body mod done.

Also when i say i have 5/6 ports removed, everything has been removed and blocked off, its not just wired open.

i'm not an expert, but from what i remember removing your BAC and doing the TB "mod" is what earns you the privilege to hold your throttle down after start up. i believe if you search for "bac removal" you'll find posts related to this, and why it's generally considered unnecessary

Yes. Put your BAC back in.

And put your 5th / 6th ports back in and get them working. You're not doing yourself any favors with them out.

I've honestly never driven the car with working 5/6 ports , i bet it would drive much better.
