To Do list:
Refit Crash Bar
Swap GTR spark plugs
Go through EVAP hoses/solenoid (have thrown EVAP code twice)
Check all intake manifold/vac connections (wobbly idle)

That's just the 'kit completion' list... The OTHER list goes on and on...
Boost Gauge
Stainless clutch line
RJM Pedal (thinking about it, tony!)
homelink mirror / radar mount
Brainiac
Sub box
etc
etc
ETC
Wobbly idle - Are you still running the post-CAT O2 sensors? Do you have CATs?

Homelink mirror tap - I had to rebuy the tap itself as I broke one of the prongs trying to force it in there. It's a really tight fit. I recommend using a thumb tack as an aid to open up enough space to slide the tap in.

I am running test pipes, but have all the o2 sensors connected. Think this might be affecting the idle?

I think the idle is one of two things:
1) Related to the EVAP leak codes
2) Barb installed on back of intake manifold (I didn't do the worlds greatest job drilling/tapping for this).

I don't quite understand what you are talking about for the homelink mirror tap? Do you mean to tap power for the radar detector? I run a separate circuit for the radar power... I followed this mod:
DIY: Center Console Mounted Radar Detector Mute Button

I pulled all that wiring out of the totaled car, just need to reinstall into the new one.

My idle always hunted until I pulled the post-CAT O2 sensors completely out of the car. Even though I had the code turned off the ECU must still use them for something. Unplugged them, replaced the sensor with O2 bung plugs and the idle cleared right up.

Never mind. I have this

Great tip and super easy to test! I will check this first =)
Now if only I had time to do anything on the car!

Nope. Still on UpRev. I'm switching to Ecutek but holding off on all mods while oil is less than $30
