Installed FAST intake and 90MM - HELP Why does the car idle so high. I have to put it in a high gear to get the rpms to fall. I can drive down the highway and 60 - 70 without cruz, it does it on its own.
Help. Has anyone ran into this problem? I heard this is found using the FAST 90 TB.

One there is no current hole. Also the idle seems to be fine. If I turn the car on it will rev to about 2000 and then drop to 8 - 900 and stay there. But driving down the road is a big problem. The rpms do not drop after touching the peddal.

Yes it is a FAST 90mm TB. I just got off the phone and they seem to believe that the problem is with IAC and the old problem has been resolved. But I can tell you this, there is some problem with mine.
Either there is a hole in the brand new intake seals or a problem with the TB.

You did use the new valley pan bolts that came with the intake, correct??

Yes I did use the valley bolts. I don't think the problem is with the intake because if it were "I would think" the idle would be a problem but it is not. My problem seems to be more with the throttle and driving down the road. I drove 5 miles a 60 - 70mph without touching the peddle or cruz control.
Please keep the ideas coming. Thanks for the responses.

maybe take it for a test drive and if the rpms hang throw it up in neutral and pull over and check the t/b to see if it is sticking or not.

Good point on the screw. No if I am driving down the road and put it in neutral the RPMs shoot up. To get them to drop I have to put it in a high gear and slow down so the RPM are below 1000 and then the car will settle down shortly there after.

Well I found the problem. It was actually 2 problems.
1. The throttle screw needed to be back off. This stopped the over reving.
2. Also the throttle was hanging so I had to put some lube on the spring.
All problems resolved until I went to dyno. I didn't gain a thing!!!!
I think this is because either one I need to increase Cam, head and or cubes. Or the MAF is now the restriction. We will see.
