I had to remove all the parts related to the coolant line issue. Including the throttle body. Now when i start the car the idle hunts and stabilizes @ about 1500 rpm. It doesn't drive to smooth either. I know for a fact all the coils, plugs and injectors are good. It ran GREAT b4 i worked on it and removed all the pieces. Always had a super stable idle and throttle response. Does it need the idle relearned or something?

I would say first off re-adapt your throttle body. Turn the key on but do not start it. You will hear the throttle body click a few times, leave it on for about a minute or so to be sure. Then key off, and start it. Secondly, you could have an intake leak if one of the gaskets is out of place.
