Is the idle air control mounted to the camcover, above the fuel rail? I was told by my freind John that he thought thats what it was.

On the early ones, it was mounted to the blower on the engine side. The bracket was weak and we went to remote mount. Not sure where yours is but it will look something like this.

not sure if thats what it is. What im looking at is what looks like a small, black, electric motor, with a bronze bracket holding it to the cam cover. A little ovular thing is on one end of the motor looking thing, and it spins around. There are 2 silicon lines running from it and there is a plug that mounts to it. I followed one of the silicon lines, and it goes to left (facing the front of the car) of the supercharger, near the bottom.

If one of the hoses goes to the fuel pressure regulator, that device is the fuel pressure regulator soleniod.

Yup, there it is.The little round, grey cylinder with the shiny blue sticker,near the firewall right? And there is a line going from the black thing, igues the fuel pressure regulator solenoid, to the fuel pressure regulator. Now my next question. The thing that spins on it, kind of like it gives more or less fuel i would guess? What doesw that do if you turn it?

Actually, Tom, I looked at the pics of your 94 withthe new Intake, and you have the identical part, above the fuel rail, near the middle of the cam cover.

Not sure what picture. A link would help. I have a 99 and nothing mounted on my fuel rail.

Thanks. Wasnt having any problems. Its okay to take that off for a few minutes while i polish the fuel rail right? Don't want to break anything.

That is just a filter cap to the open air.
