boosted 2.2 revving uncontrollably
...posting for a friend...
Anyone have an idea why a 06 2.2 ion that's recently been boosted would rev uncontrollably when you start the car? It's running 42# injectors.
edit..he wanted me to add... spliced the injector wires ie used the pigtail harnes

If it wasn't tuned..it wouldn't do that i dont think. You would just smell the gas hardcore..i ran SS injectors for a minute un-tuned on my car. (we were doing tests to see if my tune loaded) and it bogged bad.
check the throttle body..might be stuck

i have never heard of such a thing...but if the wiring is good...i would say check the TB and make sure its hooked up correctly and that its not stuck open.

thats the thing i don't get.. we cheacked the maf sensor.. it's the right way.. it's clean
he didn't mess with the TB prior to me installing things and I didn't mess with it at all either i thought about that though.. it's really pissing me off.. hows your car running thouhg silent?

did you do any intake work too?
maybe a vacuum leak somewhere post TB?
take off the intake, and start the car (you'll throw a MAF code im sure), but watch the TB and see if it is open or if its mostly closed, like it should be
