FWIW, i have all these problems w/o a unichip. I think i'm gonna try replacing the WGA vacuum line, as i can't find a problem anywhere else.

just out of curiosity, which switches do you have turned on? and which do you have turned off?

I have unichip and the mods in my sig w/ no idle issues. My car's idle will drop low sometimes, but it did that stock and does so no differently or more frequently now

I still have idle issues after removing the unichip, it seems to be another problem. Does someone have a picture of the line to the wastegate actuator so I can check it out?

the way i figured out the wga was bad and was causing my idle problems (or at least contributing to them, i've yet to install the new one), was pulling the hose off of the wga and blowing into it. If it lets air through the diagphram is bad. The line comes off of a tee that come from the mani, and also goes to the BPV. It connects to the gold-ish round thing on the top and a bit to the right of your turbo. No pics right now but i could probably take some this weekend if no one else has anything for you.

i took my car to the dealer, they said that I need a new wastegate, thank god i still have a warrenty, i'll let you know if that fixed the problem

werd. I still technically have my warranty, but i didn't wanna deal with the extra parts causing problems, so i just did it myself. Made the car run alot better. Hope it fixes it!!
