And of course hiccups just had to occur, as of right now the car starts up fine but as soon as it starts it jumps to 5000 rpms then slowly creeps to 3000rpms and sits there for idle... Not sure why it's doing this but since it's 1am here i had to call it quits for the day and hope you guys could help me out here...

Major vac leak somewhere.....thus the super high idle.........

You have the proper spacer behind the stock thorttle body from trilogy........

Definetly a vacum leak or kinked vacuum line , mines was doing the exact same thing , come to find out i had two kinks in the vacuum line going to the Map sensor.

Me thinks your throttle body spacer is on upside down.

vacuum leak ,
we had the same thing after we put on the trilogy (#230)
we had left a bolt out as I recall but it's been over two years now

after thinking about the wiring, I wired the IAT2 harness to the MAF harness but I didn't cut the two wires I just spliced them into the harness. not sure if that's the problem

How did you resolve the coolant crossover problem? Any help from the seller?

I bought some cot's from jerry.. Those things look amazing btw

And as a update the iat sensor wiring did not help, it is still idling at 3k. I looked over all vacuum lines and boost gauge is reading 20 hg vacuum pressure.. My only possibility is the throttle body spacer leaking since my buddy did not put rtv on it during the build (just asked him about it today)

To be more specific when I tap the throttle it sticks for a little bit then drops back down to 3k



Anyone??? :(

As justbob said, the throttle body spacer is upside down .
This has happened to countless members over the years.
