i just got done putting dsmlink with 1000 cc injectors, wideband, . i start the car and at first it will stay running unless i "pepper" the gas pedal,then all of a sudden it will idle at 3700 and stay there. ill shut it off and start it again then the idle shhots to 3700 and stays there..

what could this be ?????????? please help
 
how do i check for boost leaks if i cant keep it running because the idle is that high?
 
no the idle does not drop to normal when it warms up
i took the 1000cc injectors out and put stock back in and it does the same thing ...... as soon as i start it, it will stay low then 5sec after starting it jumps to 37-4800 rpms and stays there
i checked the throttle cable, maf plug, boost leaks, and vacuum to no avail
 
Have you checked the vacuum lines. If the one to the brake booster is loose or off it will give idle fits.
