idle is finally fixed..750rpms here i come

well i have finally fixed my my idle

specs; gxl with a jpec turbo swap
t2 rear
t2 tranny
t2 maf
t2 jdm uim ,with no idle stop screw
t2 aspec bac with screw

so i was trying to figure out to get my idle to 750rpm
i did so many searches
well i went outside one more time and cheched everthing
i was puzzled no go
so i went back under and looked were i t,ed my boost gauge hose to the pressure sensor to the nipple under the bac
voila..the pressure sensor hose was brittle and had a crack in
so i had a vacuum leak, but also i would start the car cold and it would die
so i went counterclocwise on the thermowax
and now my idle is a solid 750
..no more dying at a light
..no more high idle

You had the wrong size silicone hose. It should be 3.5mm for most of the nipples. The nearest equivalent size in SAE is 5/32"
