Talking

Could be a lot of things. Check:

-plug at air flow meter
-any missing vacuum hoses
-TPS unplugged?
-vacuum leaks

More than likely, there is an air leak somewhere around the TID. They have been known to crack when disturbed.

I checked the TID and its fine, its stil flexible, what else could I have knocked off? All I took off was the TID and the hose that goes from the turbo to the IC

There's a 5/8"ID hose that runs from the splitter pipe right after the turbo compressor into the BAC valve - check that to make sure it's not leaking.&nbsp This hose isn't clamped from the factory, so it's a good idea to clamp it if it isn't already!
