the eids is only suposed to help whenyou use a VTA BOV on the stock maf, if your idol is that ruff as it sounds like you have the 280's bump up your idol with the idol screw. it will take two seconds

if you look at the throttle body put your hand wher eit connects to the intake mani and you shoudl feel a round indentation the screw is in there and you will need a stuby phillips head to mess with it, righty tighty, lefty loosey have the car running and check back the rpm constently and you will know what the new idol is at

Much easier to do this in the ECU where you can do even more than just raise the idle to get rid of the idling problems he seems to be having...

with no tantrix cable i think this would be easier until he can get his hands on one and then he just has to turn it back and raise it through ecu flash

yeah i agree with raiceboi697, without a cable the iddle screw is his best bet for now, but i strongle suggest getting a cable and reading up a little about ECUFlash. the evo is in a completely higher level than hondas when it comes to stock ecu tunning. You just need to make sure to mark the iddle screw were its at now before you adjust it, and when you go to get it tunned or fixed via ECUFlash then you can set the screw back to its original position.
