WEIRD RPM's!!!!!
I just got installed a BLOX Intake Mani, 70mm throttle bodie, an AEM filter with a BLOX NA Velocity stack. Now for some reason the RPM's go up to 1.4 thousand then it goes back down to 1.1 thousand rpms. Whats going on??? Is this normal???

Does the idle continue to fluctuate, or does it balance off around 1100 RPM's?
Possibly a Vac leak, but has the car been tuned?

Re: WEIRD RPM's!!!!! (Nicks95GSR)
On an otherwise stock GSR, you will notice a significant lack of midrange power with anything other than the OEM intake manifold.
You have essentially "moved" the powerband up a few thousand RPM's. To benefit from that large throttle body and Blox IM - you need a set of cams which require more air, valve springs, retainers, and most importantly a tune.
Until you have other supporting mods, I would suggest reverting back to OEM. At the very least, change the throttle body and raise the vtec engagement point.

I just posted this a few minutes ago on another forum and have posted it several times in the past. Your flux is called fuel cut strategy and it is operating as advertised but you have created a vacuum leak, either internal or external. READ.
