damn idle

i just installed my power fc this past friday. i'm positive that i installed it correctly, cut the right wires, all that stuff. The car runs great under any sort of load, but it idles like ****. The idle surges from 900-1400 rpm. It stops for a minute if i turn the AC on, but it starts back up again after a little while. I know that the power fc needs a little time to learn, but i've already put 150 miles on it, and it's been three days now. Any suggestions? TIA, Russell.

same here, besides that when i start to spool up in any gear and my rpms rise to 3000 it starts to bog (feels like everything cuts off and pulls the car back hard). is there something i did wrong? i cut the four correct plugs. is there something i'm supposed to set?

Have you tried the adjusting the throttle body air bleed screw or the linkage idle set screw?

check this thread:

My car also had the hunting idle for a couple of days but it seems to have disappeared on its own.
