Hi guys, just after some advice, I have an E36 cab, that i've had converted to Evo running gear, engine etc, and the idle is slightly off? I have removed, cleaned and refitted the idle speed control valve, its also fitted with a Simota air intake, and an AC Schnitzer decat and rear exhaust section. I'm going to get her remapped anyway, but has anyone else experienced simialar problems after fitting an intake / exhaust?

if the idle is inconsistent it might be worth having a look at the inlet manifold gaskets for air leaks,

With the car running spray a little wd40 around the gaskets if there's an air leak the idle will pick up for a couple of seconds.
