I was kinda surprised as I've read they usually spend a little time "hunting" to find an idle point..
Test drive tomorrow on the way to work.. sounds like a nice way to start the work day / week..
Good job! Glad it went trouble free! I have read a few posts where it went sour for this-or-that reason. Yours went like mine, I just made sure what came out (and how it came out) was what went back (except for the larger throats). Happy motoring!
BTW, did you also remove the plastic screen on top of the MAF housing above the aluminum screen? That frees up a HP or two and is the basis for the 'Descreen MAF & Debaffle Elbow' mod.
