Thanks Tom - I thought with the euro takeoff just below the throttle plate there might not be so much variation.

no change in idle but that is probably just the megasquirt compensating. with the TPS reading idle it will try and hold the revs lower. This is the car that i modified to run with an electric AAV run from the dash so I can close the AAV down to the warm position so i know its not an AAV leak. I run fuel pressure and AFR guages on the dash so I can see the car is running really rich when it is running at idleand my fuel pressure just sits at 32lbs irrespective of revs. The ignition timing is exact for idle but I cannot check at 3000rpm as it is very wobbly above 2300 rpm and unpredictable even under no load. It will get right up to 5.5k with no problem but bogs down at 2.5 and then just screams up above 3k. Pulled all of the injectors on their rails and checked for injection and all are working fine, pulsing right.
cheers
