Default High surging idle but engine dies when IACV hole plugged in TB

High Idle after skunk2 manifold swap. The car idle is not lumpy but surge about 1500-2000 rpm functionaly. My idle does increase if I repeatly step on the brake pedal, is this common? My TB does not have a FITV. Took off the IACV sensor blue/black yellow/? while car running, idle does drops down but with CEL and car runs like ****. Took off the intake pipe, check the TB and cover the IACV hole. Apparently it dies. Does this mean I have a bad IACV??? I use a smoke machine to check my vaccum leak and everything seems to be fine. No leak at all...I recalibrate the TPS and replace the map sensor..I NEED SOME HELP

Stock GSR turbo
Skunk2 mani/ stock TB
50 trim turbo/log style
450 dsm/walbro<-------I also replace the injector o-rings(new)
Crome/ chip ecu
GSR cams/Stock internals
Aem FPR<-----does a bad fpr cause idle to increase

If you plug the hole and it dies, that means the iacv is good
