high idle. what can it be ?
hey guys so ive just installed my greddy kit a couple days ago. i was running pfab manifold, stock exhaust and ngk r567a-8 race sparkplugs went in for a tune and 232whp and 197trq at almost 9psi. very dissapointed with the tune i went to a different tuner that same day and he got me 257whp and 207trq, he couldnt really get more and told me something was wrong and that it was still underpowered . so he checked my motor , checked for boost leaks and everything was fine . motor seemed healthy . so he said it was the design of pfabs log mani . i went home that night he gave me a call when i got home and told me to change my plugs to ngk bkr8eix 2668 plugs . so the next morning i chaged my manifold back to the greddy one and swapped my plugs . when i started it up to drive to the tuner . i noticed my idle was high . was idling at 1600 rpms . drove to the tuner tried looking for vacumm leaks everything seemed fine , he did find that my AIC valve connector wasnt properly connected to the valve . he properly connected and it worked idle went back down to 900 rpms like stock . he tuned my car i got 270whp and 220trq at 7.5psi. i was pretty happy with the results considering that it was on pretty low boost and my S is completely stock ,stock map , stock cat and stock exhaust. right as we are unhooking the car to take it off the dyno . the idle goes back up to 1600. he said its my AIC valve giving out or to try giving it a clean . i got home and cleaned it as best i can and no change still high idle .so what you guys think it could be ?

a New one, there is a thread on here from S2Kart about it. Basically Honda wants to sell you a whole new TB, but its like $500.00. You can dremel the rivit on the TB to remove the tps, buy a new one from OMNI, buy a Voltmeter and install 
All for $60 and some patience. Try and find the thread, it's all explained
