Default RPMs drop slow to idle and rev pulsing

Hi all! I'm new to the turbo forum but I've been creepin around here for a while just gathering info. I'm currently on my third miata!

So, I have the BEGi S2 kit on my '95 NA now. I have a MS setup and some larger injectors to put back in the car after I pass smog. For the time being I have the stock ecu and injectors. Don't worry I'm not driving it hard!

Currently when driving around town and I take it out of gear the idle will drop or raise to around 1750 and stay there for about 10 seconds and then drop down to normal 800 range. Not sure why, but it really annoys me and I've never had my previous miatas do this. They were not turbo though.

The other problem is the pulsing revs. Occasionally, when the car is out of gear, it will bump up to that 1750 mark and pulse up and down between 1000 and 1750 about 3 or 4 times and then settle back down to normal idle.

I'm guessing it is some kind of sensor that isn't reading right but I would like to get some input before I start prodding around and make a mess of things.

I appreciate any help you can give!
Cheers!

its a recirculating setup. What would be the problem with it? Broken or leaking?

Fixed it! Idle was adjusted too high. Many hours of searching to resolve this problem!
