Default idle problem

installed a nw 90mm throttle body and a fast 90mm intake last night.car idled a little high but not alot more than where it was at.well i forgot to unplug the sensors from the tb.well this morning i reset the throttle body and now it idles real high.around 2000rpm.my check engine light is on now and when i put it in reverse it died.went to start it back up and it wouldnt start.had to let it sit for about a min and it started but was real sluggish like it was choking out.i dont know if my iac or mas sensor cant read the more air flow or if theres a vaccum leak.i drove it last night after i installed it with no probs but after i reset the tb all hell broke loose.thanks for your help....it also whistles like a supercharger for a min or so then dies down.
