I just replaced an old Bursch exhaust system with a new Triad exhaust on my 1.8 L-jet with 2.0 stainless heat exchangers. System works/sounds fine, but idle increased up to about 1600 rpm after the install. No other mods. I can easily crank down the idle but could there be something else at play here? I haven't fiddled with timing, etc. yet.
Thanks. |

Must have been a baked potato in a pipe to affect idle that much. The most expensive exh system wouldn't have this affect at idle. Suggest checking the mech. advance mechanism in the distributor.
