Default Skunk2 Throttle Body Idle Screw not responding...any ideas?

Ever since I had my Skunk2 TB put in, it seems like the idle screw is not working. Any ideas what could cause this to fail?

All the way in or out, my idle is the same...

Help!

Well, I slapped some Stage II Cams, did a new build and idling a bit crazy (high)...when it gets warm...it drops a bit and cant hold the idle.

I just need it to idle decent. My rigged way of doing it was to adjust the throttle cable...now it gets either stuck revving to high...or if i pull the pedal up, it just dies out.

Im putting on my stock GSR one for now until I find out whats going on.
