Default DIYPNP idles fine, stalls when throttle applied

Hello

The car is -99 EU model. All stock. DIYPNP with alternator circuit build into proto area.
3.3.1 firmware, 99-00 base map from diyautotune. Ignition settings as instructed on diyautotune.
Also TPS calibrated, CLT, IAT and o2 calibrated as instructed. Changed Fuel req. to fit my engine, dropped from 13.0 to 12.1

I finally got my DIYPNP to start and idle. Base map provided by diyautotune had "none" idle valve selected, it was tyring to idle at ~500rpm. Adjusted the idle screw to max. and i got it at ~750 which was still quite nasty. But when pedaling the throttle RPM goes down and car dies.

Next i messed around with PWM valve settings, with open and closed loop.
Both had acceptable idle of ~1000 with "Normal, 0%=off", "FIDLE", "480hz" frequency. Changing to inverted shot RPM's up to 3k, with closed and open loop.
But again, when pedaling throttle RPM drops and engine stalls. Didint try with inverted, 3k rpm without checking the crank timing was quite scary.

Also the radiator fan is ON all the time, i went from ~70c coolant temp. to ~50c coolant temp during testing and it kept on blowing.

I have read quite a bit about idle tuning, but want to get the throttle working before i start finetuning idle.
Any idea what could be wrong? all help appreciated.

Attached .MSQ and couple datalogs from open loop, closed loop and no idle valve.

Very dumb question, but do you have a vacuum line running to the DIYPNP?
