Default Skunk2 Throttle Body - How'd You get it to work?

How did those of you with a Euro-R IM get the Skunk2 TB to work? The Skunk2 TB deletes a vacuum line that seems very vital. Even on my stock TB if I unplug that line my car has a VERY hard time idling and idles VERY low and sometimes dies. With the Skunk2 TB my car sounded horrible and wouldn't even idle at all. The RPMs would just drop and die if i didn't hold the gas. Has anyone experienced a problem like this with this TB on a Euro-R IM or even on a regular H22 IM?

are you sure you set your TPS up correctly, and also adjusted the idle screw properly

Well what does that vac line run to? Its probably the MAP sensor, just hook that up to another vac nipple, it doesn't have to be the same one.

I bolted it up, it worked. Besides being extremely sticky and generally lame.

But does the 4g have the MAP sensor on the firewall? Because the Junk TB puts it on the TB. That's fine for me because it's like stock, but it might be an issue for others...

i hooked up that line to a nipple right next to the iacv on the back of the IM and it idled a little better but still idled extremely low. And the Junk2 idle screw doesn't do jack ****. I can't get it to idle any better then like 3-400.
