no, it seems to idle high (1500) and sit there for a sec, then drop to 1300 (noticable difference) then speed slowely back up to 1500, then drop to 1300. its kinda pathetic..like its trying to reach 1600, but before it gets there, it just dies and goes back to 1300..then 1400...1500...brum...1300...etc..
its weirding me out

hhmm.. i dont know what that is all about, but, your idle is considerably high compaired to my 88, and other S4s i have see, my idle is steady (give or take a little bit) 700RPMs, same with my freinds 88 and 86 SE..... that may not have anything to do with it... just thought i would mention it
