That could very well be the case, at idle and elsewhere in the power curve as the ECU uses the AFM as a primary input to manage FI. Is the Cosmo AFM a different part # than the original AFM that went with your ECU? I know AFMs are not interchangeable between S4 & S5 or T2 & NA's. I have no idea if the Cosmo AFM is interchangeable with anything else. What's the reason for using the Cosmo AFM, larger diameter opening/better flow?

When checking timing I never jumpered anything. I simply got it warmed up, idling around 800ish and pionted a timing gun.

I think that's what he was referring to - the single terminal green connector by the battery that you ground when checking CEL codes, adjusting idle and timing. When grounded, the ECU inhibits the BAC from messing with idle speed, which you'll need to check/adjust idle or base timing.
