The coolant temp sensor should give a certain ohm or voltage reading. Look in the FSM for it, once again I am out of town without mine.

Essential unless you can tune yourself...

you shouldn't need a tune if it's a stock engine

My mechanic bumped my idle via a power afc II to avoid these issues specifically with my HKS BOV vented to the atmosphere. I think. Either way i still have to blip the throttle a lil when coming to a stop after a hard pull. Again due to the BOV vented to the atmosphere. kinda of annoying but not a huge deal.

Get a rom tune...cheaper option than getting a stand alone.

Running a standalone and tuning it yourself, I think you'd definitely be in way over your head. Even I dont do my own tuning...too many variables for me to fuck up, that could potentially blow my engine.

Would a tune fix all my problems ? I'm actually bringing it to the timer mechanic tmw to look at everything I did but i don't want him to tell me I need something I don't
