Ok i know that there are a million threads on idle issues but im curious if this may be in relation to my vacuum lines. The issue is a inconsistent drop in RPMs during idle or when the clutch is disengaged. The RPMs drop between 0-100, sometimes triggering the battery and check engine light to flicker as if the car had cut off, but then saves itself 10 seconds later and sits at 700rpms. It does not happen every time i stop or push in the clutch but it only happens after the car has warmed up. It also happens whether i have boosted or not.
I have already checked each coupler for cracks and tightness, no problems. I've replaced all the vacuum lines i could see and cleaned the egr valve. I have blown down the line going to the wastegate, no budge.
Info on the car: 2003.5, It does have a unichip system, dual BOV setup, ********** side mount with hot and cold pipes. I just recently switched to a corksport full intake from the before short ram. There is a single vacuum line ran to the wastegate that only the unichip is T'd off the intake manifold and the boost gauge and both BOVs are T'd off the brake booster line. Any help in my routing of vacuum lines is much appreciated as well as any other ideas, thank you.
