So I just got done installing Pypes shorty headers and a Pypes true dual conversion. A BBK CAI and Stack Racing TB spacer went on too, but I don't think they're causing any problems.
When I went to start the car the first time, it idled very rough, almost like it was misfiring. It smoothed out a bit but still didn't sound quite right. Shut the car off after a few seconds, then started it again. Started up smoother that time, but there was smoke in the engine bay and the car starting idling high, got up to 2000 before I shut it off. Haven't tried again yet.
So my question is this: is this normal? Is the car just trying to adjust to the mods and will it figure itself out if I let it run for a while? I plan to check the ball joints for leaks and considered that I might have tapped and cracked a spark plug. Thoughts anyone?
