has any one had this problem?!

my max has the 00vi setup on it and since its been getting colder ill start the car and go drive and when i push in the clutch the rpms fall all the way around 300-400 rpms but this is only until the engine warms up a little it slowly gets higher the longer i drive until its at an idle of about 800 rpms, when i do push the clutch in and it falls down to 300 is will go back up to about 600 or so, can anybody help? im afraid once it gets colder my car will stall out on me
thanks

Mine does this too...but I'm an auto. I've actually stalled while driving on my automatic on a turn. Scary moment when you lose steering.

This is why I regret 00VI'ing. I'm going to adjust the idle up a little bit to compensate. I'm using the 5th Gen. IACV.

sounds like a curb idle problem, lookin at your car, it does not appear to have much stock left to it.
