Car Idling really low
My car is idling really low at around 500rpm and has stalled twice. This has started since the install of my comptech header and rt cat. I now have injen intake / comptech header / rt cat / greddy exhaust if that helps at all.

I started the car today and it was idling at around 1000 now which is more where it normally is. I just moved it out of the garage so I dont know if it will stay there but I will check later on today. I think I am going to buy the rockway unit the rmpage and tsx536 has that monitors a/f and lets me reset check engine lights and read them.

You may want to pull codes first and see if there was anything intermittent going off.
