when you misted around did the idle jump or change any?

also try this
take your intake off [not your intake mani]
and start your car and cover the Throttle Body with your hand and if the car dies there is no vacuum leak but if the car doent stall/die then you have a leak somewhere

do you have a bouncing idle? vac leak will cause that. Listen for a hissing. Did you do any work to the engine recently?
Look for cracked hoses, bad TB or IM gasket :thumb:

if you can't hear any hissing, and your idle isn't bouncing up and down, then what makes you think you have a vac leak?

Don't you have an IAT sensor missing on your car or was that a different motor? I'd start with the big problems that can cause your car to run poor, such as a missing sensor.
