sounds like the car is hunting. it not have an airt leak or leaky bov at all. it is casued by excessive vacuum in the plenum which most computers can not compensate for at idle. i have sent it on several cars and it is nothing to be worried about. usually happens with the installation of a larger (aftermarket) plenum.

the idle will always vary between a certain range e.g. 800-1000 rpm.

I'm curious to know if it has aggressive camshafts in it as that would show up as reversion with a single common throttle plenum manifold . I think Nissan used the std multi throttle system so that longer overlap cams , that breath and scavenge well , don't get the reversion problem .

Could the noise be a boom box effect from having all the inlet ports open to the plenim volume . Jun being aftermarket may not have put much thought into sound suppression .

Also the high power engines that use these inlet manifolds , do these have huge turbos sort of flat out or nothing power delivery ? I'm curious as to why you would use this with more response friendly turbos . Please note I'm not having a dig at you just wondering about maximum effort manifold with road user friendly turbos - would they compliment each other .

Cheers A .

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
