the tps may not have moved, but the throttle plate may be sticking open slightly. maybe the cable is a bit too tight, maybe the adjustment screw for the throttle plate is a bit too far up.

just a thought anyhow.

but no other issues electrically? that flickering cel is kind of bothersome.

lol, that would make me think there are other electrical issues. :P

I'd blame the ECU, but you say you've been using this ECU problem free for a while now?

problem free for just over a year. tho i did just solder a jumper back into it a little while ago, bad solder job maybe?

eh, EG batteries arent really anywhere near the charge pipes.

Updates on actual symptoms. I blew a second fuse, but it only happens if I do what causes that flickery CEL.

CEL only flickers if i decel with the clutch engaged, shove the clutch in and let it idle and its fine.

basically the only things that have changed with the install of the kit are the chip (which was used in my last setup, the injectors, and the resistor box, which had both plug ends so nothing was cut or soldered. possible the box murdoc sent me was a dud?

I figure it has to be that resistor box, or the jumper. and possibly a tps issue like warrick was talking about.

ps - what voltage is tps supposed to be at throttle closed? just 0V?

ps - turbo is toast, doesnt even spin at idle.
