Idle/Driving Issues

Been having problems with my IX since I wire tucked my injector harness. Triple checked everything and can't figure out what it is. Very eratic idle andwhen driving, I push the gas, and it lags then about two seconds later, jerks and pulls. I don't know what is going on. Here's two videos at idle. One was after the car was sitting and one was immedetly after my drive home from work.

Fixed the driving issue, had a loose O2 wire. But on cold starts, it still revs to 2500 rpms before settling down.

If you have just reset the computer it will start up like that and will settle down after a while. A few more hundred miles will should start up and idle normally.

I did it today to install my mini battery and it doesn't seem to be as bad. I did notice that when I release my clutch the rpms drop by a hundred or so.

Yup. The computer is "relearning" your fuel trim.

Also, my car ame with a crazy map on it and everytime we tried to load a stock map to it, it wouldn't start. Copied the immobilizer code and everything, and nothing. So today we noticed that Bit 3 was at 0, so we changed it in the stock map to 0 and it starts! So what's this mean?
