    Okay, it's idling fine mostly, it's just every once in awhile that it idles down stumbling at a red light or stop sign. Revving it smooths things out. I really would like to see this thing on the dyno (for a baseline). Another possible symptom is the cruise control sort of surges--slightly, but I don't know if that's due to the slightly bouncy speedometer/cable. Just wanted to make make sure it wasn't going to hurt anything driving 6 hours or so across OH & PA.

    So count me in for the Dyno still, thanks.

      oh... that problem. It did that to me, too. I never did find that issue. I just bumped the idle up a little so it wouldn't die at the light.

                            Mine is down on power and needs tuned again because of the MAF swap. 212hp and 262 torques. Sounds awesome at 6000 RPM though.

                              Mine is one sad HO. 165hp & like 220ft-lbs of torque (still decent). Quiet as heck. Did we all fuck up one of our runs by punching it too hard and downshifting, it seems like we all fucked up one of our 3 runs punching it too hard and downshifting. Also, you can't see the absolute smoke-show mine put on in the video, but looking out with the rearview from inside the car it was like a light coal-rolling. You're welcome, mosquitophobes! I'll get a photo or scan of my sheets today, hopefully.
