Default idle dip after revs normal?

I know this is probably situational, but figured i'd see if this was normal, and if there is any way tune around the problem to fix it.

I have an exedy triple carbon clutch with light flywheel, which im sure affects it too.

When I rev the car in neutral and let off the gas, the idle dips low(like 500) and the car feels like it could die.. It doesn't but worries me for daily driving situations.

I took off my procharger and put it back to a stock map for now. with the procharger it wasn't as noticeable.


Does anyone else have this problem?

Yes, mine has definitely done this and has from time to time over the years. Ive always attributed it to either some small vacuum leak or just the combination of exhaust components I had on at the time.

Keep in mind that lightweight drivetrain components will greatly amplify your perception of this vs all stock you wouldnt have all that rumbling and chatter when the RPMs drop.

Don't worry about it.

Mine does the same thing, especially after I reset the computer after changing a part or something... I hate resetting the computer, for like 2 weeks I think the car is going to stall on me at the worst time... But so far it hasnt let me down.

I feel the same way. I hardly drive the car, especially since its been snowing till recently but I plan to start driving it more now that its warming up. I guess I will just drive it and see how it goes.
