Default D16y7 skunk2 manifold

I have install the skunk2 manifold on my d16y7 using the y7 throttle body and ecu, car turns on no check engine light but if I try reving it up will idle & as I let off the idle drop low sometime too low engine dies off of anyone have a suggestion or idea I'm also have a aem fuel rail with b16 fuel regulator and stock y7 injector? I'm thinking on try running the stock b16 injector on it too see if it help.

It's possible to swap TPS and MAP sensor connectors on this set up so make sure those are in the right spot.

You have a 2-wire IACV on the back of that manifold, but the ECU will need the 3-wire on the TB and the ports for the 2-wire blocked. Years ago I did this with a scrap of sheet metal between the 2-wire valve and manifold with a coating of RTV on both sides. Not terribly elegant, but very effective and cheap.

I also remember that the Y7 throttle body uses a different gasket and will leak if a y8/z6 gasket is substituted. or something along those lines. make sure you don't have a huge vacuum leak at the TB.

nope, stick with the stock injectors. you'll just introduce another variable for the Y7 ECU to contend with. stock ECU needs stock injectors.
