shitty idle
 
i am recently installing turbo in my 95 civic ex and when i start up the car, the idle bounces back and fourth between 1000-1500 rpm. any answers/solutions to my problem?

Well, what did you install right before it started doing this?

Re:shitty idle
 
So are you saying it isn't finished yet? Is there a turbo on the manifold?

im just wondering if it might be a certain vacumm line that might be hooked up incorrectly. this problem only occours when the engine speed is increased. otherwise when the car is first started up it is fine.

it's a loose vac line.. zip tie the connections so they are tight.
