New Exhaust, New Problems
So i just finished installing the racing beat cat replacement pipe and presilencer on my 87 NA. Upon starting it for the first time it idled very rough with the RPMs bouncing from 750 to 1500. Also when i tried to rev the car it wouldnt go above 2k. Then when i tried to put it into gear and hit the gas the car bucked and made a popping noise.
A few hours later i tried to start the car and everything went fine. It idled smoothly at 750 when warmed up. I took at out for a spin and it drove fine..for about 5 minutes. Then the RPMs started jumping up and down like before and whenever i hit the gas the car would shake and make a loud bang. So i had to limp/coast back home.
so anyone have any ideas whats wrong with my car?

I followed the directions from racing beat. The split air pipe is still hooked up to the presilencer. I removed the air pump and and blocked off the ACV with a plate.
