thanks for the advice, I got the car to idle at 1200 now, found out by the screw on the carb

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.

my street port 13b w/stock ecu idles around 700-800 ... thats with aux ports open too.

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....

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...
