Gold FB this afternoon in Camas, passed right in front of Top Burger.

Blue s4 on the backroads of 4th plain about a half hour ago; was most likely Rianamix here on the forums.

That I believe was me, although it's not an Apex'I exhaust. It's a Motoria (previous owner put it on). Just got it back on the road after an entire drivetrain swap and power FC install. Can't get the damn thing to idle properly though, so everyone gives me the "WTF?" look at stoplights.

Awesome. Did you swap the wires in the harness and do the idle learning process?? That should fix it if you haven't

I did a motor swap during the tranny swap, and I used a j-spec motor with its engine harness.

I've done the idle process a few times. It learns fine and idles great until it fully warms up. Then the idle starts hunting. I'm going to search for vacuum leaks tonight and run the idle learn process again.

I don't have an ISC on it anymore, but it's usually the ISC causing the problem, and not the absence of it, so I don't think that's really the cause. Other than the idle, everything else is fine, although I get alot of sputtering and stuff at very light throttle.

Red FD in front of Tony's One stop auto repair - looks like it had some damage above the passenger rear quarterpanel. People in the shop said the owner was an older guy named Clint.

I parked right in front of your car w/my FC, then confused the shop mechanics b/c they didn't know which 7 belonged to who!
