i converted my na into a turbo and when i started it. i got it to rev up easily but when i let off on the gase the engine would idle VERY low or immediately die, is it because i am running a na fuel pump or is it because of other reasons???? any advice would be very helpfull

The fuel pump wouldnt be the issue with idling unless its dead. You do want to get that pump out for a better one before driving it though!



The idle issue is probably a vac leak somewhere...

can other issues with some wiring cause the engine not to idle because its also hard to start the car though it is the first few times i have been firing it up

Using starting fluid spray around the intake manifolds - if the engine revs up when you spray a certain area, thats where your leak is...



There are all kinds of things that COULD be the issue - start checking things off, check all connections, hoses, etc..
