The car's idle is jumping up and down between 900 and 400 rpm's. It fights to stay on but cant hold and idle for more than a minute i would say. One more weird thing, it has a cold air and it whistles/whines when i accelerate. Other than that, once it is on the road it runs friggin great. ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif)

tighten the adjusting screw on the TB until the idle is around 1k rpm, with a cam you will have idling problems so get used to it ![[dance]](graemlins/dance.gif)
