got second turbo online...but need help with idle

I FINALLY DID THE HOSE JOB!...and it fixed the second turbo. but now after i put all my parts back on, my idle is messed up. it sits about at 1500 (it was at 2000 till i fixed it a little) and the only way i can get it down to normal is to pull the gas pedal back. any clues?

thanks,
mike

PS...I LOVE TURBOS!!!!!!!

make sure you attached your throttle cable on correctly, and make sure the screw in the fron tof the throttle body is not screwwed down...

Yeah, i pulled off my upper intake manifold and have the same problem. I'm thinking it is the gasket.. but maybe i could be wrong. Let me know what you find.

I had done that to myself once before and it was caused by me not anchoring the throttle cable correctly. Some how I mounted the throttle cable too tight.
