You probably are getting on it too and you are experiencing fuel cut off bc you are redlining too much.

your point is???????????????????????????????????????????????????? Its still under 1000 and weather dependant the ecu will lower.. The ecu will relearn.. I got an entire briefing on the Z's ECU at Uprev the ECU gods.. So.. and your point is again.. Oh and I never recommended him to get a 950 idle.. I only stated that is my idle..... pls read.. Anyways.. Im here to help the OP.. not debate with Motormouth on idle sets..

my point is that from your post it implies that a 950rpm idle for a stock car is a 'good' setting, when to me that is pretty high. why not give him a recommendation for a 'good' stock idle since you have been taught the secrets of the ECU by the gods themselves?

that is all mr. sensitive, why not change your tampon and stop overreacting?

and just to clarify:

a) I am joking, don't take it seriously

b) it was only my opinion that your post seemed to imply that you were recommending him to set his idle to 950. and I was just asking for clarification like:

'no, a 950 idle is good for my car because of the supercharger, but a stock Z would be gold at 650-750rpms'

Im in no way sensitive ..... You must be wearing ultra sensitive tampons because I only restated the fact that I only told him my idle "my idle is 950" and by my sig.. No one in there right mind would think im stock..

Motormouth= .. jk..

you wouldnt happen to have a pop-charger installed would you?

This may be in left field but ive heard complaints about pop-chargers stalling Z's at high speeds when shifting into neutral.

no pop charger, nothing yet. since it was my daily driver around DC, decided to keep it stock until warranty is over...500 miles to go.
