here i have a video, it shows how it sputters as i give it a light tugg on the throttle cable. that time it didn't turn the car off but now the car turns off immediately.... i know the TPS wiring seems bootleg, but i had to extent the plug to make the NA harness work...

again only when cold will the engine run nicely and idle fine untill i decide to rev the engine speed, even if its to 2krpm...i have not tried another TPS, the one that i had worked fine before the swap....the maf i believe is also fine, how do i go about cheeking if that one is functioning properly because I know that a faulty maf will not even let the engine turn onm, but just crank.

heres idle when the car was started cold and i have not messed with the throttle, its been on for 20 mins. if i was to turn the car off and restart it, it would start up great but it will have a hard time staying on....

is it normal for the vacuum to be at 10 like my boost gauge shows my T2 at idle is always at 20 and this car seems to be at 10 sometimes rarely at 15...
