Ok, last night I just got done installing a BBK o/r H, and Flows catback, I also disconnected the battery for about 6 hours, when I went to start her up she sounded fine, seemed to idle a little higher and take a little longer to drop, but that may just be me looking for stuff to go wrong, backed her out of the garage fine and as I was coming up to the end of the street, at the stop sign, the car idle like ****, bounced to around 800 then dipped to 300 and almost died, then cam back to life, I went around the block, punched it once and it felt ****ty, felt even slower, then went home and called it a dissappointing night.
So first, what happened to my idle, was it disconnecting the battery that tells the car to relearn, or something like that?
Why did it feel slower than before?
I do have an exhaust leak, could that be the problem?
Second, there is some sort of tube that runs parallel with the passenger side stock H and then runs up to some sort of air lines ( it's on this page as fig.3 http://www.stangnet.com/tech/shorties/shortyheader.html) I think it's the air injection, but the instructions call it a vacuum line, I just unhooked it and left it, could that be my problem that the idle jumped like that? Because there is no vacuum going on and it is a vacuum line according to the instructions.
