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?

Re:shitty idle

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.
