Car Idles Like SH*T , whats going on
yesterday i was driving and i went to get food , got on it in second a little , shifted at about 6k into third and shut it down at about 80 well then i went home chilled for like 3 hours go back out to the car and when it starts it idles like the throttle body sensor is unplugged , so i thought it was the coolant thing but i was wrong , so i changed my spark plugs , still idles like the throttle body sensor is unplugged ,i dont know what is going on , the car is in limp mode and it will not come out !!!!!! the reason i know the way it sounds when it is unplugged is because that was the one thing i forgot to plug in when we put the blower on when swapping pulleys ,

Is it the rubber hose thats disconnected, or did the fill neck come disconnected from the rest of the aftercooler cooling system?
If its the rubber hose, one end is connected to the fill neck, the other is just a vent to the atmosphere. Its an overflow line.

Check where your intake pipes are connected for leaks, check the sensor on top of the supercharger, check the map, baro, and maf sensors to make sure nothing come loose.
