Default high idle after intake manis reinstalled???

I had a boost sensor added to my manifold and reinstalled mani gaskets because I have been suspecting a leak from iradic low rpm idle. It will stay at about 500-600 but then die down and the dash lights dim before jumping back up to normal idle RPM while sitting still at a light.

This time I installed the cork mani gaskets I sprayed them with copper gasket sealer and installed the mani bolts with locktite and torqued them to 10ft/lbs using center out technique. I have had these off before and did the cork gaskets without problems.

Now after the manis are reinstalled the idle is at 2,000 and jumps down and then back up. Reving it doesn't lower it and I have done a throttle reset twice.

Any other ideas or things I should try?
