Honda civic d14a4 turbo Problems???

I know alot of you wont have time for new people like me so Right long story cut short i need help with my civic 1.4 turbo project this seems like the site to go to. I'm new so you are going to have to bear with me on this one I'm not a great writer.

The turbo kit was going just great (if anything little low on power 130bhp) until I noticed I was burning a hell of alot of oil. I thought of the worse and started on replacing piston rings but now I know it's the turbo oil seal.

Anyway the rebuild went just fine until start up. I have the worse idle in the world and it constantly stalls with clutch in or neutral. It has got so bad I cant drive it. It had actually got worse as it was actually working before not in neutral but now runs really bad. I have heard something on air in coolant system and iacv system??? Does anyone know what this is. The boost gauge suggests i am loosing vac but it is variable. I have checked vac lines and tried idle control valve.


Any help would be much appreciated as i seem to be stuck on this one
