Hit the brakes, idle speed drops??

Mine doesnt do that, and relatively speaking it would be MORE noticable on a carbed application especially with my cam, which gives me a really poor vacuum signal at idle.

RE: Hit the brakes, idle speed drops??

Mine does that too... Its really annoying because it will cause my car to stall sometimes. It started doing it after I replaced the spark plugs and also replaced the upperplenum/tb and CAI. So I am thinking I gapped the plugs too much, I gapped them on the larger side of specs. But also I check the voltage at the throttle position sensor and its not giving the needed 5 volts only 4.2volts. that might be a cause also... Sorry to steal this thread but its related.
