AEM CAI rpm fluctuation Problem on 5th Gen.?
Wassup everybody,
My brother recently installed a AEM CAI on his 5th Gen. Prelude. When he first starts up the car to warm the car up a little and is idle, he notices that the rpm on the car starts to fluctuate between 1,000 to 2,000. The rpm keeps fluctuating until he drives the car. So whenever the car is idle, the rpm starts to fluctuate (which seems a little odd?) Is this a problem for any other prelude owners w/ an AEM CAI? If so, how do I go about helping him to fix this? I appreciate any advice anybody has. Thanks!

You probably got a vaccum leak. Look at your vac hoses and see if one got pulled off on accedent.. 
and their is a vac line running to the resinator box, you have to plug it with a screw or something
