No idea about how to even use a TECII. I run the WRXLink in my RS.

the wrx link runs on your car? what's the difference between the wrx link and the link for the RS, anyway? Well, I didn't mean to ask how to raise the idle via the tec 2. The stock ecu is taking care of that. I just heard that there's some kind of screw on the throttle body that you turn to lower or raise the idle? Where is this screw? I can't seem to find it.. anyone have pics?

That's a damn good question. I need to turn the idle up on my car too. The TEC 3 TPS and the stock ecu TPS don't like the current idle setting. I wonder if raising up the idle speed will smooth things out.

ok, I might've solved the stalling problem already... had to mess with the tec's tps voltage settings and sensitivity.

i didn't think you could change the idle unless you changed to an aftermarket ecu or were running a utec. who knows, let the truth be told!
