once the car comes to a stop the rpms begin to fluctuate.
i am getting a CEL and the code it was throwing was the throttle position sensor, and the kit has been installed for a year next month. This has been going on since mid october and i've changed out the tps to a new one, but still don't know what the problem is. Just had my turbo taken off and put back on last week to put a new turbo manifold on, and the guy who installed it said he didn't see any problems.

i'll try and call rrm tomorrow and have the car looked during the week. thanks everone for the input so far. Can you explain more of maxing of the MAF sensor, do you mean it is reading to way too much air flow????

yes, I believe one of the guys from PR fixed this messing with the injectors and piggy values. Something about tricking the MAF and ECU while letting larger injectors still maintain more fuel flow. Pretty interesting stuff actually. Maybe was t-rush? He's helping you anyway so you will get this knowledge.

It's probably built into the piggy unit included with the turbo kit I would imagine. That means something isn't setup right and he should call RRM. Should be a simple fix, it always is when I call.
Do you have a wideband? I would make sure my AFR is safe to drive around with, you don't want to have to rebuild your engine.
