Default Major cold start problems, HELP!!

im having alot of trouble getting my scooby to idle when i 1st start it up, when it does start the revs go up and down or it idles at 200rpm but stabilises after 30 seconds, once its warm its 100%, what could it be? the tempreture sensor seems to be ok as its showing normal tempretures on the pfc commander, all 4 coilpacks are brand new and im using pfr7b plugs which have done approx 10k miles, the rest of the spec is in view my scooby, any help appreciated, many thanks

did the problems start after one of the mods have been put on?

It most probably is the settings in the Power Fc for the IAC which are not suited for your modifications.

See if you can compare with others using the apexi.
