Not a lot of info with this one, but I think I would start with some of the obvious possible. 1) Did you disconnect the battery when installing the PTB? 2) Is the MAF sensor/TB plugged in? 3) When istalling the TB, hand tight with the screws correct till setted? 4)Throttle blade might have issues, defective from porting, not closing, leaking. Sounds like to much air. Try reinstalling oem TB, see if that fixes the problem.

Last ditch, restore original back up file from the trinity, but I would assume to much air at idle/start up. Let us know how you make out
