Ok, it looks like that was at least most of the problem. I replaced the throttle actuator with a used one and now when I push the pedal the throttles open!
However after reconnecting everything, now the car dies immediately after trying to start it, it no longer continues to run like it did before. Literally starts and runs for 1 second then dies. Its not EWS as the car was running indefinitely a few days ago.
Edit...the MAF is toast too. No wonder i am having a hell of a time figuring this swap out. Literally almost none of the parts are working.
Car runs with maf unplugged. If it's plugged in it starts and immediately dies.
After replacing the throttle actuator and clearing codes, now the only code I get is p0102 - maf sensor
I have the K&N typhoon intake, so the maf only goes in one direction or else the holes don't line up. If it is plugged in it dies immediately.
ICV to air box connection is good. With the air box not installed and/or all sorts of hoses unplugged (started a few times while testing various things) which would be a much greater vacuum leak, the car runs indefinitely even that way, as long as the maf is unplugged
Yes to all of the above. I may have a small leak at the brake booster grommet, but not enough to kill the car. I can hear it leak if I wiggle the hose, but it either isn't leaking normally, or its small enough I can't hear it at rest
Was definitely the MAF. Bought a new Bosch one from ECS, plugged it in, and car fires up and drives without issue.
I am now at least able to drive around town while I work out the kinks. I appreciate all the help in this thread
