Weird Idle after 125 Shot

That means its working properly. On a wet kit there is always some left over fuel after the shot that boggs the engine down for a few seconds. Dont worry about it. If it stops doing that you might have a problem of no fuel.

As long as the car comes right back to a steady idle. What plugs are you using? Can you verify the air/fuel?

Well it doesn't come right back, it takes about 4-5 seconds. Whatever came stock on a 2000 z28 are the plugs, and i have no way of checking on the a/f for awhile.

You should definitly change your plugs. TR6's What rpms did you spray at? I ran a 125 from about 2800 to 5800 rpms..and my car never idled funny after. NX wet kit.
