to set your base idle, run engine till hot, then unplugg iscv via its grey plug...idle should not drop...if it does,adjust idle to 900rpm via screw under throttle body....then reconnect the iscv and the idle should be stable.

the base idle shouldnt be held on the iscv,with the valve closed or unplugged it should idle nicely at 900rpm


simply adjuting the global modifier,without checking fuelling on full boost is a very dangerous game, as it alters the whole fuel table as a percentage.

tps is a good posibility to,if the ecu spots an opening throttle it opens the iscv,so if tps is incorectly set it can open the idle
you lost me on the global modifier???

yeh the rest makes sence, i will have a play with the idle screw.

as said it only hunts when warm. before hunting starts/ when its cold it idles at 1200 which i guess is normal on cold? will have a play let you know
