Default 75 MM TB and idle tweak

I just put a 75MM BBK TB on over the weekend. Everything went great, no leaks and runs strong. My question is this. When I had the stock TB on, it idled a hair under 700 RPM. With the new TB on, I can't get it below 900RPM RPM. It doesn't look like you can put the TPS on wrong and I guess the TPS on my '02 isn't adjustable. I adjusted the throttle linkage screw back to the point that it doesn't even contact the linkage but it won't go below 900RPM. Is there something I missed or is it the nature of the larger TB? I suppose I could check the voltage from the TPS to see what it reads, but everything worked great with the stock piece. Any ideas

Yea you might have too adjust the voltage to the TPS.

I know with the 5.0s, the TPS was slotted to adjust. How do you tweak the newer ones?

I was told you had to drill out the TPS holes, just alittle, with a drill to make it adjustable.

Nah, just move it around a little. That is the only way you can do it. (well, save drilling it I guess)

yeah, some places say to use a voltmeter so you can make it more precise but just adjust the voltage til you get it right. But i dunno if it has to be off when youre doin it
