first post here. completely new to the dsm world. Perhaps stupidly i bought a heavily modified 2g talon tsi. It has a huge list of parts that have been installed including bigger turbo, cams, forged internals, injectors to name a few. Long story short the car was idling high when i received it, did some research and came across the biss screw. I tried simply turning it counter clockwise to lower the idle ( it was pretty much all the way tightened when i started) it fixed the idle but then it started stalling after i would rev it/ drive. As the rpms would come back down it would stall out. So i tried closing it again, this is when the problem started. The screw became stripped and i could no longer close it back to where it was. So after trying forever i completely mangled the soft copper screw... So i tried tapping a flat head into it to get it to turn, this worked but i couldn't get it to stop stalling. I tapped the screw more to turn it again but by now the screw was right down to the rubber gromet thing and it is now almost in half but it is still seated in the threads and turning. I started the car once more and it barely started now.. also it would barely respond to me pressing the throttle. It would clunk around and make all sorts of horrible stalling clunking noises. I tried a few more times and it now sounds absolutely horrid when trying to start and keep it running. Im very scared as this car is now my daily driver and i need it to work! IM worried that from tapping the screw with the flat head that a piece of it broke off and went into the throttle body and got sucked in? would this cause the horrible clunking/stalling sound? please help im dumb and dont know what to do now.. the car wont even run anymore... all because of me turning this stupid screw that i should have just left alone.. please some one help me
