Can I get a copy

LWF goes in next week...
Anyone have any thoughts on how necessary the fork upgrade is ? At an additional 400 beens p/l it seems expensive...

One difference with the 964 vs 993 is you can adjust the idle on a 964 at the throttle cable. That has been done to my car and does improve/reduce the stalling. As I said, I haven't had any issues with the 4 track days I've had since the LWF install a few weeks ago, but I may try the ISV adjustment if I have any problems.

When I pull the pins from the hall sensor connector I have the same stalling problem as you, so I have been able to recreate the issue. The one other thing you'll notice after you fix your problem is that the engine will go back to running sequential fuel injection from batch mode and put out a little more horsepower.

So Jason, are you ready to work on my chip if I send it to you? Remember lots of engine mods and a modded chip already. Runs like a scalded cat so don't want to lose any of that.

Poll Results
Anyone have an update on the poll results ?
The RS came with the lwf but did it also come with a different exhaust and Chip ?
It would be interesting to know from the folks who have had idle issues if they changed their:
Exhaust
Airbox
Chip
Certainly they would not have sold a new RS that did not idle. Did the RS come with a different exhaust ? I realize there was an AC delete but minus that you would have to think it would idle new from the factory.

Drifting
I'm not sure if I already posted to this thread, but I can see that I answered the poll with the 3rd choice.
I have the RS clutch + LWF, B&B dual-outlet muffler MDS (?) with K&N cone, and Andial chip. IIRC, I got the exhaust and chip at the same time, and Jerry at EPE near Boston drilled my airbox, all at the same time. I got the clutch and LWF later, after the flywheel broke at Watkins Glen. My wife and I were co-driving the car, backto-back at a DE weekend.
Back on-topic, I'm not sure that the chip takes the LWF into account. I never stall the car unless I blow a launch, usually from being distracted. However, most people (valets, mechanics, etc) don't do so well with the car bc they're not used to it. Also, even I have trouble keeping it from stalling when the AC is going.
A different mechanic in Boston - Kevin at Randolph Racing, did some mod to the fuel system to dump more fuel in and that seemed to help, but that was a long time ago...
Not sure if any of this info is relevant to your situation - probably not - but I had a few mins to kill and thought I'd post my experience...
Lastly - the LWF is awesome. The car spins up very nicely and seems to have more power. I've had a chance to go back to stock due to a starter-related flywheel problem, but I would never give up my LWF, so all the new parts that went in were the same - RS clucth and LWF
