[QUOTE="tinnocker, post: 1515621, member: 28454"] I have my idle down to about 850-900 with the gizmo like in the picture. On a cold start it will still surge for 45 seconds or so. If I raise the rpms up to 1000-1100 the cold start surge is gone. I think the computer is set to seek a higher rpm at start but is happy after the engine is warmed a little. And you are right about a performance cam needing a higher idle, but if the idle is too high it is hard to tell if the engine has a performance cam, especially on a stage 1 cam. I guess I am content with the 850-900 rpm setting even with the 45 second surging, until I am bored some day and start to fool with it again. [/QUOTE]
