^ sounds like a good start, could be a tb problem not intake manifold problem. but check it anyways to make sure all gaskets on mani and tb sealed nicely. and take chingpo05's advice.

Do you have the IAT port on the drivers side of the manifold blocked off?

Yes, you should. I just put a bolt in it and it was fine.
Also, did you resuse your old intake manifold gasket or did you put a new one on?
