Good morning, afternoon, evening.
So a little background. I have done the mess under the intake mod. Did it about a year ago and car has performed phenomenally. It's been on the Nurburgring, done an Autocross day, has been the victim of countless clutch drops and cone smacks. The only thing.. ONLY THING that pisses me off is this damn idle. I have double, triple checked all my vacuum lines they are all new, every gasket new, ICV has been cleaned twice and yet.. to my dismay my idle sucks. I even reset the ECU and it helped I even posted on here like 2 months ago how happy I was. but its back. I reset it again.. still poop. Can it be the fact that the engine is 23 years old, has 300,000k+ on it, when I replaced the oil pan gasket there was no plastic or metal in the pan and the crank looked SUPER clean. My top end looks great too except my cam gears. Am I missing something? I have included 3 videos 1. A cold start at about 60 degrees outside, 2. small 3/4 throttle pull up to 5k rpm to show she still pulls with no hiccups, 3. and a fully warmed up drive through a parking lot to show that even warm the car still idles crappy. Also, throttle response sucks which leads me to believe its something in the intake tract.
Cold start: I hold the throttle for a little at 1000rpm and then let it go.
Slightly warmed up: Just pulling up to 5k at about 3/4 throttle. Pulls strong.
Fully warm, still dying out and throttle response is not perfect.
