I just finished my sr20 swap and double/tripple checked everything before taking it for a drive.

I am having a little bit of a problem with the idle, it hovers around 600rpm. and if i blip the throttle at all it will struggle and dip down/stall.

But it will idle well at 600 if i slowly nurse it down.

Suggestions on where to start?

I'd start by doing the simple things first. Pressure Test it to see if you got any vacuum leaks. I've seen the weirdest things happen as a result of a vacuum leak

will do that, i think you are right it seems like it's a lean stall when the idle drops.

how's the weather in bc?
