It sounds like you just made that a straight hose going from the snorkus to the throttle body. That will give you way too much air at idle. The hose from the snorkus should go to the cold air bypass valve and then a hose from the cold air bypass valve should go to the throttle body. The cold air bypass valve is underneath the manifold on the driver's side.
Gotcha, makes sense... I didn't pay attention when we took the hoses off. But other than that, the new software is awesome!
