i was kind of hoping to install one to control the idle all the time, not just with a/c on and having it open fully. is this a possibility with the megajolt?

well the idle valve that is on the car now is simply a screw, it is not powered, you set the idle with it and thats it but ive noticed it varies weather it is hot and humid out or cool. i do not have a valve yet so im open to suggestions.

idle solenoid valve?

hi guys, i have a tr6 pi and want to install an idle control solenoid. can someone walk me through this? how do i set it up? the tr6 pi is a mechanically fuel injected engine and i was thinking of adding a/c and this would require bumping up the idle. thanks
