thanks for the advice, I got the car to idle at 1200 now, found out by the screw on the carb https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/wacko.png I juss thought 1500 was ok, it runs good now I gotta battery eatin sound system so 1200 keeps a good charge, and I like the high revin sound too. My cars an 88 don know whats the engines year. would a supercharger be too much on the engine at normal driving? If im gonna put boost I just want a more simpal system.

Street ported engines usually idle around 1100-1300rpm.You might want to lower it to 1100.Glad to hear it rips.If you still have any cats in the system pull those out if you want more power. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

yeah only bp idle that high

that sounds like unsync'ed carb throats also.....you can use a tube held up to your ear and down inside the carb throat at idle and adjust the idle/air bypass screw so that they are the same tone..
sync it to the lower tone.... |
take out the cats...... mucho power

Thanks guys but my engine is running fine I dont want to mess with it nemore and have it spit in my face. So Ima leave it alone. Plus it keeps a good charge on my battery, I have a Zues 6000 amp powering 3 12" Kicker XPL Subs in Bazooka tubes, and an MTX amp 450 watts powerin my for 8" voice midranges.So the extra revvin of the engine is good for my battery...
