Nope:/ same crappy idle as it worms up it gets a little bit better not even noticeable difference. And mu intage is either sucking or blowing really really really loud. I cleaned the butterfly valve and iac.

Looks better than mine! There is an O ring on the TB. Be careful when you install not to push the ring into the TB.
