Yay yesterday I was workin on bleeding my breaks when I remebered that I also wanted to find out some way to fix my idle. I tried the whole adjusting the screw on the TB the whole bac valve and that never worked so I just reached my hand around the back of the IC and found out that my throttle cable wasnt even raped around my little half round thing that the cable connects to and so I raped it back around. Next thing I know my idle drops to under 1000rpm and my boost guage starts to finally work and my gas pedal doesnt stick. I just figured Id share that with everyone considering that I have made countless threads on how or why my idle sux or why isnt my boost guage working. YAY!!!!



I still have one question though, Ok so my car never stars unless its completely cooled down or I pop the clutch and Im sure that isnt to good to do all the time, What do you think is the proble because Ive tried starting it by using someone jumper cables to my car. I dont know if its the batery or not what do you think it is. Plz help

Do you have any mods, mostly an intake? If it is hot under the hood and you have an open element intake it will want to suck in hot air which makes it hard to start. If you have an open element intake try making a CAI of some cort.
