Default S2 68mm throttle body gasket help

So I bought this thermal gasket for my throttle body but it doesn't covery the top port in the picture all the way and cause a vaccume leak. So I made one from some felpro gasket material and now my car doesn't really wanna start and fall on its face when you give it gas. I looked online for a gasket and I noticed they all have different port in the gasket so my question is what one do I need. Intake is a skunk2 pro intake I don't have a iacv ether.

check and fix any stored trouble codes.

adjust the tps properly.

vacuum leak would cause high idle and snappy throttle, not what you're experiencing.
your idle circuit is not getting enough air. either turn the idle screw out, or put the iacv back on.

There are 0 trouble codes. I do have a slight high idle it idles about 1200 with the leaking gasket tps sensor is calibrated. But once I put the gasket in thats suppose to be it will start idle for a split second and then die. Only runs and drives with the wrong gasket that leaks

I don't have a iacv it's been deletedin the basemap as well. The idle screw on these throttle bodies only adjust 75rpms

I see what you mean by the idle circuit not getting enough air, but once the engine is warm the iacv doesn't do anything. I know multiple people not running it. I'm gonna be trying to see if itshe fuel related by spraying starting fluid and seeing if it stays running. If not then I'm. Pretty much stumped what else it could be. I was thinking maybe the base map but I don't know
