It idles super smooth by just adjusting the idle RPM lower. I got pretty sick of the fake lope yesterday while I was sitting in a drive through so I reversed what I did with the spark over/underspeed. It sounded kinda cool but I'm not willing to have more vibrations.
Now This morning I noticed my volt gauge reading low and then I got a service brake system message pop up twice for about 1 second each time. I'm thinking maybe having the fans come on early is drawing considerably more power. Its only set to turn low speed on early which I didn't think would have more draw than the 145a alternator would produce. But then again having the run constantly at idle which is lower rpm than usual and likely not producing as much power is probably not good either. Oh well I guess back to 775 idle it is.

Loose positive side battery connection, I really hate side post terminals. The "lope" tune probably didn't help the half stripped terminal hold any.
