Default Torquer V.2 ??

Well the is installed and running for my first install it all went smooth
when i started it for the first time i never had to feather the gas to keep it running.
it ran on its own. i let it warm up to op temp and then shut it down.
then ran back the house to get my predator to see what code i was throwing?
when i tried to started this time i had to feather the gas to keep it running after about 5 minutes it ran on its own but this time it idled at 500rpms instead of at 900rpms like the first start up?
i have a 3/16th hole in the throttle body?
should i go witha bigger hole in the TB or wait for tuning?
the is in sig

Yeah, I second the no drilling. Get a tune on it and you'll be fine

Get a tune, dont mess with your TB and you really shouldnt use the n2o without a tune either.

Direct advice from TSP: crack the throttle body a little until you get a tune. Baby the car in the meantime.

I wouldn't drill any bigger than a 3/16" in the throttle body. If you need to, crack the TB blade to keep the car idling in traffic until you get it tuned. After the tune you should be able to set it back and the car will run fine. Congrats on the install!
