Indeed. Have you noticed a difference at all with the idle in comparison to the outside air temperature? I'm had a similar issue in my old evo, odd question I know.

I'm running Kelfords on stock engine stock ecu idles perfectly ask SRT-TO-EVO he knows. Actually the car runs even smoother now. You Chris give me a call I got her running ice smooth and lowered the idle and quiet down the exhaust. Sounds great on wastegate and well we know what 25psi sounds like. To the OP try a Mellon Tune. I have 2 tuners in my area that has tuned kelfords perfectly. My idle is 800-1k very smooth when you turn the a/c on the car won't even flinch.

Yes I have the same problem with the A/C on. I use Fcon Vpro, which the tuner had to set the idle up from the Vpro.

Yeah I'm trying to tell the OP it's probably the crappy ETS intake (same one I have), not the cams since ever car I've been in/heard there pretty easy to get to idle.
Damien Is this another free ride I see ? Yeah man I'll give you a call next time I'm in DF.

Im really debating switching back to HKS 272s, cuz taking a chance to go AEM EMS and then later finding out that the car still has a problem and its not the Stock ECU tuning that was the issue is gonna throw me a little over the edge
Hang in there for a day or three.

John will be tuning my car in a few days and I will let you know the results.
I just installed the Kelford 272's and they are giving me stall issues too. Fresh engine build. Lots of new parts to tune, so looking forward to getting everything under control.

well i know this is breaking EvoM policies, but i think this deserves it.


HOLY ****ING ****!

i installed the stock intake pipe, and the car runs SMOOTH az hell!

No more Stalling with A/C on.

No more cruising in 5th gear @ 45-50 mph and having AFRs randomly JUMP TO 10.0 for no reason.

All i need now is to buy a Catch Can

Huh.. I wonder why the ETS intake pipe would cause this? I mean I look at some other intakes and they look very similar but damn it you learn something new on this forum every day. Nomad r u stock turbo?

Just got mine installed along with BBK and supporting mods, no idle issues. However, when crusing around and I press in the clutch the RPMs will drop down to about 900 bounce up to about 1200 drop down again and then smooth out. Doesn't happen when I decelerate, only when I hold in the clutch.
