My car on two occasions has idled at extremely low revs and was on the verge of stalling. (300-800rpm)

It also mis-fired a few times whilst driving.

Is this a know problem or am I on my own?

If it's not running right due to the minor mods i've made would a dastek fix the broblem?

Many thanks

That's quite normal...the ECU tries to lower the idle as low as it can and sometimes it can feel like it's about to stall, but it never does.

I don't think Dastek can help with the idle. You'd need a PFC or another standalone...

Also, I don't see why Apexi intake or an exhaust would cause that  s:? :? s:?
Sure you can live without 500hp, but it\'s languishing.

Air leak in the Apexi? Any air bypassing the MAF will confuse things.

That's true, I didn't think of install bugs  s:roll: :roll: s:roll:
