Default Greddy Turbo kit...Idle bad?

1997 acura integra RS

This is round two for my install of the greddy kit..both times the idle never was proper.

The Idle will be extremly lean, off the scale (higher then 18!) then it will progressively work its way richer in fuel. As soon as it hits about 14.8 (about normal idle air/fuel?) the idle will drop and the car will sputter, choke, and nearly die, at the same time the air/fuel goes lean off the scale. This will only start happening after the car reaches warm.

We tested for vac/boost leaks with a homemade tester, nadda, holds 10psi fine.

Wiring has been checked numerous times.

Under boost the car will run good air fuel rations 11-12, pulls strong.

Im going to be getting a loaner blue box, cuase maybe its defective? I dont know what else to look for, im out of ideas, and totatly frustrated.

Also having unrelated oil pressure issues.

Yes using the Blue box included with the kit. Was planning on going with something better, but not untill these kinks are worked out.

Many people have had a stock idle with the blue box, I seriously doubt that greddy would put out such a crap product.

Well I tried another blue box, no such luck.

Anyone have any other ideas?
