Default Idles crappy after pro-m install

I put in my mass air meter today and it idlesat 600 instead of 700 like it was. At times it will go to 400 and then jump back up to 600. why is it doing this.

Do you have it on right? If it's upside down (not backwards) it won't operate right.

why dont you get a predator or chip? i always though that was the best way to get the most outta a MAM, i thought that you had to adjust your A/F ratio
