Default Please help...Stiff brake pedal

Ok after installing a new intake, I went for a drive and threw it in neutral and realized the rpms were still revving at like 2800rpms. So I go to slow down and the brake pedal is like a rock...I had to pump the crap out of the pedal to stop in time at the light, where, in neutral again the car is still revving irratically between 2300 to 2800 rpms. Please offer any opinions, as not having brakes was def something I do not want to deal with ever again.

Then after you find the hose that is off, Zip Tie ALL of your vacuum lines.

Vaccume line, the one that should run to the right of your turbo/intake, turn you car in, reach to the right of them, you'll feel the air coming out, just plug it back in.

Always remember to double check everything when installing parts.
