Low idle after installing HFC?
I installed R HFC by fast intentions on friday, and drove the car to work today. On my way home I noticed car was idling REALLY low, thought it would shut off but maintained at 200, no CEL. I'm gonna check all plugs+vacuum lines under the hood, cause maybe I just noticed it, but it may have started before. But would anything HFC related result in a low idle, the 02 sensor should throw a CEL right? Anything else it might be?

Do the full list of resets, IIRC Motordyne has a full list somewhere on their site. Doing the battery method works as well, but it's always good to know the pedal methods.
I have HFC, catback, intake, spacer, and my idle is perfectly normal, so you definitely have something going on. If the resets don't work, definitely make sure you check lines.

Exhaust is kiiiiind of air delivery. An engine is just a giant air pump; altering intake or exhaust will alter the overall flow. Best to just play it safe and reset after any modifications.

Only seconds if you just pedal dance an ECM reset However it won't affect your idle, you need to pedal dance an idle air reset for that one.

Sitting over night being unplugged your ECU can get very stupid, nothing works as intended! Last and only time I made this mistake my idle was barely 200 rpm along with everything else being screwed up. Took SLICK to my favorite GT-R mechanic (Nissan) and he reset everything within minutes with his hand held...no charge!

Are you making sure to do the idle air recalibration when the engine is FULLY up to temp (including transmission) and with EVERY power consumer turned off? This includes radio, AC controller (completely off, not just the fan turned off), headlights, etc.
If the lights don't flash properly during the recalibration then you didn't do it right.
