Hi guys, I´ve fitted yesterday my supercharger kit that I bought from Rich (aka Fordygti) and when i started it up the idle was at 3k... there are only 2 things that I maybe have to check later that are the TPS and the slimline wiring, but probably the TPS wiring is wrong am I right?

Should be a problem with the kit as I came of my car working and straight to you. Check all you connections from were you extended the loom. I had a couple of problems at first due to s**te connections.

Remove the inlet and make sure there is no old gasket stuck to both the head face and inlet face. I had this issue, cleaned up both faces, new gasket and was spot on.

Nice to see another Portuguese member on here. When i got my car back from the conversion i had issues with the throttle cable as well which would influence the idle. Make The TPS goes from closed all the way to fully opened as mine did not.

Bem vindo and get some pics up Thumbs up

sounds like a air leak and it's sucking in air from somewhere which is letting it idle high
