the old engine and the engine currently in my s4 vert have done this...maybe cuz the aws has been removed and it tries to warm up at 1500 rpms

u hear is a prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr brap brap prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr brap prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr brap prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

then when it gets warmed up itll be fine

i havent been around any other N/As warming up except mine so i figured it was normal if the old and new engine do the same thing
