Ok soo I f***ed up somewhere again and could really use some help

Swapped new turbo setup and added a afpr. After everything car turns on but runs like ass. Can't idle without throttle . Fouling 2 plugs almost every startup .
My afpr reads 43 when off (primed with ecmlink) when idle it's at 39ish . Isn't that too high for idle ?
I've done a BLT and fixed the ones I could find from not tightening couplers enough but same problem

Edit: went from 14b to small 16g running same tune, doubt the tune is the problem tho
Engine mods :
750 fic injectors
255 pump
Fuel lab afpr
Fp manifold, small16g , Megan o2housing.

Any input would be great thanks
 
Well here's a better pic of the engine bay .

I need to cap now the port at the red circle I also replaced the hose next to it.
And for the green circle that leads to my Watergate , hope that's right .
I re adjusted my fuel pressure to be at 43 exact on the gauge

Still waiting for my new boost leak tester and the new connectors . Hopefully that'll be it and get my car going again

I checked the hoses you where talking about Chrysler kid and I just ended up pulling out the sensor (wasn't plugged into anything) and plugged the ports .

Yeah you can cap every vacuum opening on the intake manifold if you want but you need to leave the sensors plugged in, to make the check engine light stay off.

The vacuum diagram was posted earlier on page 2.

The blow off valve and fuel pressure regulator need to be hooked to the intake manifold.

I highly suggest putting everything back to factory orientation to make everything easier.


For now you need to cap the opening here for the vent valve you un hooked. You can get a vacuum cap or thread a bolt into the hose to make sure it doesn't leak air into the manifold

Went to AutoZone earlier and bought a variety of vacuum caps and plugged those few ports .
As far as unused sensors and CELs I don't mind them since I have ecmlink I just get rid of them .

Package for my connectors come in tomorrow so I'll post back when I get those connectors redone :D
