Hi all

Can anyone out there tell me the correct idle speed for an 01 Bugeye WRX?

Mine idles at 500 which seems low compared to other cars i have owned.....I also have an intermittent yet damn annoying misfire at idle.

I dont know if the two are related or not but it would nice if anyone has any ideas

thanks

Does no-one on here have a bugeye that they can go and fire up and tell me there rev idle speed?

If you could it would be most appreciated

Thanks

Mine idles at about 650-700 mate, so maybe yours is a bit low....

mines at 740-750 seems abit low to me to ... but my mates bugeye idles at 500 but hes got loads of electrical gadgets so will drop a bit on tick over.

Should idle at about 750rpm, although note that the guage is a bit misleading : 0-500 revs takes up about 2mm on the guage !

My to is 500 and just bought it! Mines had a few things done to it though. Exhaust, dump valve, chipped, induction kit, and goes bloody perfect!!

tested mine and it don't miss a beat at 600rpm

It should be around 750rpm

hi all

thanks for the replys.

I changed the exhaust back from the prodrive one i had on it to the original and all is fine again.

Its most odd though as i didnt think an exhaust would be the cause of the misfire on idle!

i have a psi3 data monitor fitted to my bugeye and it flickers between 568rpm and 623rpm on tickover,it has a full 2.5" decat with no misfires
