93 TSi AWD 5spd. Car starts. Idles at about 500RPM's and bogs togh when I give it throttle. The FPR hoses were off, so I got those kind of hooked up the best I know how, anybody know EXACTLY where they go? When I turn the headlights on the idle drops a little bit as well. Its running VERY rich, or is it lean? Either way after just a quick 10 mins idling the maifold and the hot side of the turbo were red. Also how do I adjust the TPS?
 
it sounds like your running lean since your hotside is glowing red which obviously means the exhaust gas temperature is hot.
i cant really tell if you have some kind of a tuning device. if you have a safc by any chance, try to richen out the fuel trims
 
oh, crap didnt realize kept thinking about 2g's at the time... anyway RRE's webpage has a write up on how to adjust the TPS check that out guy!
 
I have tuner/logger/scantool..... I'm going to eff with it some more tomorrow and If I can't get it any better it can sit until I'm not so broke. This car has eaten me alive....

Also It might be of help to say this is a 6bolt engine.

6bolt/4bolt combo actually.......
