There is a resistance test you can do jumping 2 of the wires with a meter and blip the throttle...can't access the online shop manual for some reason to know which 2 wires though
I replaced mine with a universal bosch from the auto parts which is the same sensor but you just splice it in and save $100

Sweet! I'll try replacing the o2 sensor first and see if it helps. I was think that possibly the exhaust manifold gasket needed replacing, but I talked to the mechanic which I've taken my car to many times before (and does a great job) said it'd be at least $180 and could easily be a $1000 or more if a stud is broken inside the head.
To keep you all informed, I just went and drove my car around to let it reach normal operating temperature. I then parked it while still running and looked around all the intake piping/manifold and exhaust. I found nothing, nor heard anything major besides a hardly noticeable hissing coming from up by the throttle body area. Not sure if it is normal to hear this noise in that particular are or not, but I am getting extremely frustrated with this idle issue.
Found out last night my brother bought it from him. Sorry man.

modded a atp wastegate for use with my 2871r.
stock wastegate vs cut & threaded atp.
wastegate w/ the new threaded arm.

yeah exactly. Today marks exactly one month since the car ran. Im slowly reaching the point where Im starting not to care anymore. Hopefully a scan tool or multimeter tells me something when I get one. If I can't figure it out with those, it's going to a shop. If they can't figure it out, well...**** it. Look forward to a part out because honestly Im getting tired of getting nowhere with this car.

yeah me too. I spoke with a few guys including 505 about the casting mark issue and nobody has had issues with it with this batch. and so far, I am the only one having issues out of everyone who got a manifold from the 2nd group buy. Also looking at the flange, it doesn't appear to hit anything at all. So, Im ruling the manifold install out of my issue.
