I have been experiencing +17 ltft at idle, but while cruising my fuel trims are within the normal parameters.
I have smoke tested my intake and have not been able to find any leaks. This has only started happening after I had my intake valves cleaned, injectors replaced with cw turbochargers cleaned and flow tested injectors, had an oil catch can installed and deleted my egr. Any help is appreciated, Thanks

did you do a boost leak test not just a smoke test?
is the EGR leaking? is the occ leaking or pinched at all

I sealed it up with rtv red and as for a boost leak test how would i go about doing so do i need an air compressor? also i dont believe the oil catch can lines are pinched. I have also read that the bottom right bolt on the intake manifold can cause the manifold not to mate properly and that some people leave it out could that be the issue?
 
The bottom bolt doesn't line up if you use a thermal insulated intake manifold gasket so you crack the manifold trying to put it in

If you are using a stock gasket your fine
