ALL done. I gotta say i love this intake. Revs much faster and my car sounds louder. I would recommend this 4sure. It also fits under my stock hood which lots of people say it wont. Its pretty kool how much space i have to get to my valve covers now!
But, I hate it when there is a BUT.., My car now idles kinda crappy. I set the timming with the spout out at about 14. When i rev slowly inbetween idle and 2k i feel and hear the hesitation(small missfire). Now when i did the swap i also left all the parts on the SSI. I did not swap the sensors from the stock Intake. I did not check the tps volts but iam sure i dont have a vaccum leak. Help guys.. my eyes almost tear up kuzz of the exhaust too.

It flows different than what the computer is used to . Give it time the ecm may adapt to the new flow readings its getting from the maf. Also did you have the battery disconnected?

I had similar issues with my 94 when I was doing doing work to it. It would start up and jump up to about 1500 rpm then it would drop to around 600 and lope till it got warmed up completely then idle perfect. I did a tps adjustment and a idle relearn then after a few times idleing for 10 mins or so the lope was gone and it idles perfect now.

Agreed. I thought these ecm's adapted to changes (to an extent). I always have to reset the 94/95 computers so it can relearn the idling parameters
