ported intake
doubble roller timing chain
headmen hedders (shortys)
ultimate T.B.I. mods
removed cat and air pump

ever since i rebuilt the engine last year it has not idled right it likes to drop down to about 300 rpm and them bounce back up to 600rpm it dosent matter if it is hot or cold it still does this and it is geting annoying i am also throwing some codes ie map high map low, rich lean.and esc but my mechanic thinks there bogus as it runs fine other then the idle, i am running the stock chip and am awating a reply from hypertech.

First off, welcome aboard.

Secondly I would look into getting a custom chip made for your car. MAP engines don't like huge changes in their parameters. I'm still running mine on the stock chip and the idle bounces around like yours does.

i donno how well the hypertec will ffit your peramiters... Id look into either burning the chip yourself ( there are board and tech articles dedicated to this here) or taking it to a knowlegable shop and having a chip burned for it.
