Default throttle Body install

OK, so I know intalling a throttle body and EGR plate is not the best mod price/power wise, but I caught a good deal ona 65mmFRPP TB and BBK egr,and was plannin on installing it next week. It looks like it is a pretty simple take off and bolt back on job, but are there any sugestions/tips that might make this an easier or better install??? I looked around the forum a little and didn't find anything. Thanks all sudjuestions welcomed.

Take off the coolant hoses, remove the units, clean the gasket areas, install new gaskets, reassemble, set the tps and the idle speed and you're done. Pretty straight forward!!

the idle is set with a screw that sticks out and keeps the throttle open, you will see it if someone is there to press the gas pedal for you. its very easy.

as far as the tps i dont know
