If you not tuned your going to experience the ECU trying to hold a steady idle so you might get more vibration. I get a little stutter from the engine but nothing to really alarm me. Send me a PM I'll meet up with you tonight and take a look at it on my way home from work.

Yes I did. When I first got mine done, I noticed it was a little louder, loped alot, and especially shook the interior. It really shook the interior alot actually. I loved it!

PS. Also, now that my car has been tuned, most of that has went away.

Get it tuned and you won't notice it as much. Mine still has a little bit of a rough idle but, I like the loping.

Maybe it is the flux-capacitor?

Seriously.. I have Helix 272's and I don't have any vibration from my steering wheel. I would check the belt too...

mine has a lope to it almost stalls when idling and cold outside. I have a small vibration in the steering wheel during idle, but I have lower and side engine mounts. I have HKS 272s installed and tuned for them.
