having same issue what was the fix ?

I have had Idle issues since I have bought the car 2 months ago it would start cold at 500 rpms the. Work it's way up to 1100 rpms. I adjusted the tsps to spec and cleaned the IAC. No luck . Got a good used IAC put it In starts at 1300 rpms cold idles at round 750 warm. That's all good I hop in...

Ok update. I took out the IAC and it was closed causing the low idle p. I took it apart and spun it until it was all the way open. Put it back together put it on the car 1700 rpm steady no drop after 15 to 30 seconds so I took it all apart again. Closed it all the way. Put it back together and...

The cold start only effects the initial start. It will idle at 800 and go up to 1100 after 10 min of driving once the engine is warm

No then no codes

Nope no check engine. Will you still get codes if the cl isn't on?

What would cause my car to idle at like 750 when I first start it and as it gets warmer it goes up to 1100 rpm. I adjusted the tps to spec, timed the engine and cleaned the iacv but I think the iacv is junk can you ajust them? Also car has no vacuum leaks

Sweet that's what I was thinking as long as its torqued down. What are the arp studs Torqued down too?

The cometic hg, could I get away with not machining because its not leaking right now the hg is fine I'm just doing stuff to support the 400hp The cometic says its better for surfaces that are hard to seal, it looks like its metal and has like a thin ruber on top of the metal

So you are saying I can run my head gasket at 400hp ? I'm gunna put arps in so that should help. If I keep the boost under 13 lbs I think no could run it. I plant on getting the engine rebuild down the road. I just don't want to have the head and block machined right now.

Would a hg like titanmotorsport work it's not all metal its like a composite good for 500hp it says anything over 500 then the hks is recommended

Ok one more question. The previous owner told me the owner before him did the head gasket. I don't know what type of hg or if he used arp studs. The hg is fine right now but if I'm going to be putting down 350 hp and 15lbs of boost I think im gunna have to put a metal hg and arp studs. Does the...

The car came with cheap sun pro gauges. Im switching to auto meter, wide band, coolant and boost Will a apexi neo work for tuning?

Ok thanks. So. Even if you upgrade the turbo and set it to 16 psi you don't need to get tuned

I have a 89 mk3 turbo with a larger intercooler and piping. 3 inch exhaust. And intake. That is how I bought it I'm planning on putting 550 injectors and Lexus afm upgrade this winter while everything is apart. I also plant on getting a 57 trim,Fpr, and other little things Now do you I...
