Heres the deal:
me and my buddy just got done putting together my turbo type r. when it came time to start. the engine would turn over but wouldn't start.
after checking the fuel pump...injectors...fuel pressure regulator....and all ignition components we got it to start.

the problem is now that it is very hard to start and idles very badly. It also has NO pedal response at all. The only way to get the car to stay on is by constantly pumping the gas pedal.

I noticed a littlepuddleof oil sitting on the left corner of my head gasket. I was thinking that i may have a leaking head gasket but not sure, if it would cause all these problems. I have removed and reinstalled the head 2 times now to make sure it was torqued and done properly. It is a brand new head gasket so im not to sure about that.

Any help would be awesome. there might be something we didn't think of or possibly looked over. Thanks for the help.

 

You have to list us your complete setup. Injectors, Piggybacks, etc.....................

 

ok here we go.. Crower Rods, Ross 9.3:1 psitons, bored .020 over, total gapless top ring, balanced and blueprinted block.

k now for the turbo kit, its a 18g mitsubishi turbo, its the greddy kit
front mount intercooler

now the fuel: Walboro 255 pump, venom 550 injectors, Apex Power FC fully tunable comp, AEM Fuel rail,AEM fuel pressure regulator, MAgnecore wires, MSD Distributor cap with external coil, and msd ignition, FMU from greddy with a 10:1 disc in it, apex dunk 3' exhaust Skunk2 tunable cam gears, boostingabout 14psi.. umm what else.....straight piped....arp head studs...stock head gasket...i probably left something out... umm ummm

 

it could be your idle control, it's on top of the intake manifold but you already know that i assume...if it needs to be restet, i believe you tap it.

 

No offense, but is your timing belt on correct? (ie. cam gear could be off 1 tooth or so)

 

True... 1 tooth and you won't be able to idle for crap...

Also, before you go crazy, check all in engine harness plugs, wiring and vaccum lines as one of the first things.
