runnin. Any ideas what to check. I initialized the data on the PFC as it was previously used on a single turbo car. Is there anything else I need to do?

Sorry to say this, but with my experience R&Ring engines; if it dont' work; you usually messed up. Has happen to me and my freind while working on other owners cars. That is why we check each others work when it comes to control hoses and harness hookups.

Do this during each phase of the rebuild and installing process. The addage "two heads are better than one" is true! Also and extra pair of eyes can see what you overlooked.

Example: he moved his air temp sensor to the Greddy elbo. His idle started messing up the next day. He could not find anything wrong and the extended harness was checked and verified as good. He asked me to look.
So I think, bad idle control; ISC must not be working.
I check the ISC solenoid connector: He had put it back on but not tight enough to lock in place. Thus is slipped out enough to break connection but was still on the solenoid.
