Yo....cool! We need to meet up sometime...I'd love to check your FD out.

What color is it? I've seen a couple FDs running around.

As for the bouncy idle..I'm sure you'd like to get rid of it as well...

The weather sucks here, by the way.

Checking your vacuum pipes is also another good idea. I have seen pfc do this when there is a vacuum leak. Vacuum leak is small enough for the stock ecu to compensate without you noticing that you have one, yet when a pfc is installed it can't learn to idle correctly because it can't compensate for a vacuum leak like the stock ecu does. It does not take a week for a pfc to learn idle either.

Welps. I haven't had a chance so far to check out the fuel maps and figure out how everything works. So NO...it's still doing the idle thing.

I just keep the A/C on and at the 1st setting, and that pretty much keeps the at a steady 1000 rpms.

I can't freakin' wait to get the damn thing fixed.
