all im trying to say is before i installed the injectors it idled fine, i set the correction -40% across the board on high cam and low cam

06 in 06 out
throttle position is 98% 99%

im not trying to raise or lower my idle with the vafc im trying to get my a/f correct to ensure im not dumping too much fuel into my engine or not enough

i just dont understand why before my idle was perfect and now it idles around 600-700

the screw i was talking about was the screw underneath the throttle body under the butterfly handle if you screw it in or out it will adjust your idle
