• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

RPM at idle

The idle speed when new was 1400-1450 with not much fluctuation. Now at 2500 mi it seems to be bouncing between 1350 and 1450 . There is more fluctuation than before. This suggests an imbalance between the airboxes. Are there take-off ports on the airboxes and if so has anyone tried to balance the boxes? I don't have a shop manual so I am not familiar with the process.

I had a fuel injected BMW and I could balance the boxes quite easily.

Thanks for the fast response. Yes, I meant throttle bodies. The device I had for my Beemer measured the flow of air and I adjusted the throttle cable to balance them out. Worked very well.

Now that is not fun. i am 1000 miles and idle 1350-1500 is that a concern or a tweak?
