Default Y8 intake mani on y7, ALMOST THROUGH, 1 QUESTION!

What do I do with the 2 nipples on the underside of the y7 throttle body?

Also the intake air sensor and plug which attaches to the stock airbox... what do I do with these now that I have a homemade short ram intake?

That's the IACV that you need to use. I don't think you can use the 2-wire one on the back of the manifold because the y7 ecu only reads the 3-wire. Make a hole in your intake arm and plug the IAT in there.

no, im not talkking about the IAVC, got that good and going. Theres 2 nipples on the underside of the throttle body oppositte end of the IAVC. I just plugged each up with vacuum hose. Is this ok?

I just took the car for a spin, no CE lights and feels great! Just have a high idle at a steady 3k. Wheres that idle control screw at? I already have the throttle cable set to where the butterfly plate inside tb is practically closed.

Can someone help me out with thi s question? I got the car up and running, idles great at startup, right at 700 rpm. As soon as I get going though and put it back into neutral it will idle at a steady 3000 rpm. No CE lights, nothing. Sometimes if you blip the throttle the rpm will fall back down to 700 but very rare. Any clues?

By nipples you mean the two things that poke right out of the bottom? The coolant lines?

That's just a coolant pass through. A hose goes from the coolant line where the thermostat is to one of those nipples then another hose goes from the other nipple right next to it to one of the lipples on the IACV. Then another coolant hose goes from the iacv to wherever it normally goes..

It would be best to do it the way I explained. You could try looping a vacuum line through each of those two nipples and see what happens.
