Default Cleaned the IAC ... now car stalls at idle?

well my idle has been rough so I've been reading up and ne of the first things suggested was to check the IAC valve. I did that and the port on the intake was caked w/ black ****. I cleaned all that out, reinstalled everything and took it for a ride around the block and it stalls on me any time I let off the throttle.

got it to idle fine while in the driveway just now, but once i touch the trottle, or even turn the a/c on/off, it boggs down

Any suggestions on how i can solve this one?

By the way it a d16y8 w/ greddy kit and im using the hack

thats exactly what i needed to do ... to bad i figured that out 3 hours later

There's an adjustment screw on the top of the TB to the right of the MAP sensor. I pulled off the little plug/cap thing and turn the screw counter-clockwise and kept turning the a/c on and off and tapped the throttle to see if the rpm's dipped anymore. After a few adjustments, I idled normal and now when I rev, it always returns to a perfect idle.

thanks JDMlyfestyle
