cruise control effect??

what causes that and how to get it under control? ever since i installed my 90/90 setup it does this at high speeds. if i get the rpms up they will sometimes hang until i press the brake and slow down.

read 'idle writeup' in my sig, what you're describing is RAF recalibration and reseting of IAT, but do the whole thing, it will help general drivability quite a bit.

might be, but RAF takes care of like 80% of the idle/off-throttle situations, so it's a good thing to take care of first, to simply eliminate the popular problem. in the worst case, you end up with the same calibration you started with, in the best case, you rid of your problems completely.

If he has not changed the effective area for the 90 mm TB, would that contribute to this?

actually i've been getting mixed reports about this, for some altering that table doesn't do anything, to some it's elementary. since i'm a poor grad student, i don't have money for fancy 90mm toys

bring me one for testing and you'll get your results
