    Base Running Airflow.

    Let me start off by saying I have done quite a bit of research and have been unable to find exact answers for my questions. I'm fairly inexperienced.

    I have a 05 c6 e40, 408 with a 235/243 621/624 115+2. I'm having issues with idle dip/stalling, going from higher rpm to idle (pressing clutch). I started by adding 19* to my base timing and coast down and base idle to 800. I know I need to adjust my base idle airflow but am unsure how to do it correctly. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks, Chris Wood

    I don't know who tuned the car previously, and honestly I'm to inexperienced to know what looks right and what looks wrong from the original tune. Im trying to learn as much as possible and slowly make changes for the better. After reading through the thread 5 liter recommended I've made some changes to my idle air flow. I am still getting some dip in rpm when engaging the clutch without giving any throttle. Also what specifically would you like a log of?
