Default New 4.2L turbo 350z some???'s

Hey i just purchased a 2005 350z it already has the following done..... a GTM 2.4l stroker motor, SGP tranny, turbonetic's single turbo, HKS Fcon Pro V stand alone system, upgraded fuel pump and other some other smaller things. The car runs great, pulls strong, and the turbo spools with no problems. My question is every time i start my car or let the car idle, it surges up and down. it will go from just under 1,000 rpm to rate below 1,500 rpm, you can hear the engine revving up and down when idle.

sgp tranny.....might want to make sure its not stock. Do some searching about that shop.

4.2l and turbonetics...interesting combo.

wow a 2.4L (de)stroker. I cant immagine the revs you are hitting with it destroked that much. 12kredline?


I dont know about the reving though. Im pretty sure it should not jump that High. should be more consistent. Just my guess, let someone who tunes turbos tell you though.

Why would you go through all that expense to put a Turbonetics kit on the motor? Prepare for disappointment...
