there's your problem right there. :D Seriously, our your secondaries working? Did you leave one of their vacuum lines disconnected? Did you reconnect the Fuel Pressure Regulator vacuum line? How did your intake gaskets look? Did you re-check the torque on all the mainifold bolts? There's a few places to start!

They all keep telling you to check the secondaries. Easy way is to start the car and see if they close. They will be open prior to the vacuum pressure building. If they don't close check the 8 connection pionts for the secondaries. If all are connected check for any other vacuum hoses from other systems that are not connected as they may keep the car from building vacuum. As your doing this check for leaking and pinched hoses (its happened before).
