Block off plate leaking a bit maybe. Weak guess. The cycling idle.....did it start after the new turbo or after the acv was removed???? One of those hose that went to the acv was a vacuum, the other two were more than less pressure. Is the one that was vacuum *switching solenoid*, not plugged???? The hose that is.
