Default Irratic Idle B16

Irratic Idle in my B16 after installing the following:

Skunk2 Intake Manifold
Skunk2 TB

all gaskets changed.
all lines hooked up correctly
all electrical plugs hooked up correctly
NO CEL
Idle jumps from 1300-2100 back and fourth constantly

Could it be the TPS?
Also i think since the erratic idleing is so severe it may have messed one of my motor mounts up because i can feel movement very bad in my shifter

had the same problem when i put my skunk2 manifold and TB on, it was the gasket between the head and manifold leaking, i must've missed part of the old gasket cleaning it off. try cleaning the gasket surface up again and i've also read that a heatshield gasket like the Hondata one also fixes alot of people's problems with this issue with skunk2 manifolds. hope that helps.
