Just installed it yesterday with some help. EGR tube ended up being a little short (yeah I should have gotten a 626 one I know now) and is connected to the IM and capped off at the end. Header EGR output is open to the air. I am sure I have no leaks on the IM and the car idles ok but at time it seems like it wants to give out, but doesn't. It has given out twice after install but has not done it since. I am going to try to adjust the throttle to see if that helps. Twisting left lowers it and twisting right highers it, correct? Also, original mani brace is still installed. When I hit the gas I feel vibrations I have never before on the brake and gas pedals. Could the IM brace be translating them? Makes we not want to hit the gas because of how strong the vibrations are :/ Any bad stories involving the removal of the IM brace? Seems like without the brace, the studs and bolts holding the IM are going to take a beating, right?
Side note: I am N/A on a 02 Protege ES.
