SEMTEX,

I still have the original intakes, and YES, you're right. The guy did not attach the horse shoe shaped coupler as it is still attached to the original intakes. Also, as you mentioned, I did notice a slight fluctuation with the voltage gauge. Not much but it is noticeable. I see that it fluctuates a smidgen below 12 but it constantly remains just above 14 for the most part. I will play around with the AC and let you know.
Is the UD pulley the same as the crankshaft pulley? I have the crankshaft pulley from Stillen installed and I fear it may not be installed properly if the same guy did the install on the intakes.

MY FINAL QUESTION. Could the kink in the hose be the cause for the erratic engine idle?
