You did a real clean job man. Right now I'm swapping a B18c1 into an EG hatch 18lbs boost, fresh total rebuild from top to bottom. I'm a mechanic and I can help you out if you can use full words, I'm not used to slang terms, sorry man. I'm giving you props though on your build tho.

I use rubber plugs to plug off extra fittings. If that's what you are wondering? You are idling high still? Once you close off all your vaccumes it might come down, or your idle screw is turned up.
