Ok, so I went to the vfaq for idle surge and I checked my ISC and between the 1&2 pins there is 34 ohms of resistance, between the 4&5 there is 34.2 ohms of resistance, and between the 5&6 pins, there is 34.1 ohms of resistance. But when I try to measure the resistance between the 2&3 pin, I cannot get any measurement. This leads me to believe that either my ISC is screwed up at a more in depth level than the vfaq went into, or I'm doing something wrong and my ISC is actually ok. BTW, my issue is idle surge, between about 1200 rpm and 1800 rpm. I can get the idle surge to subside sometimes if I turn on a bunch of accessories and rapidly turn my steering wheel left to right (and jump up and down on one leg and do the macarena), and I recently (within the past day) put on a recirculation kit. Help me please, idle surge is king of embarrasing. No good. Oh yeah, it's a 1995 eclipse GST, upgraded fuel pump, boost controller, exhaust, intake, headers, cam gears, Hks BOV, Fuel pressure regualtor.
 
Seriously, that should not have went as well as it should. Idle is doin great, so I'm assuming I have a bad ISC??? I guess its good news that I know what it is. Thank you sooooo much for the help. I was just going to bring it to a witch doctor and have the demons ceremonialy done away with through some sort of automotive exorcism, but this was a much better idea and way more cost efficient.
