That is what I thought as well. But whatever is clever.

Amen my friend DB is a great place to learn. I am stoked that was the issue. It was a PITA to get installed but well worth the results!

Mine would drop in rpm very fast and then right back to normal idle. The video is a youtube video so it should work for you, but if not I have no idea why not.

To me yours sounds like the grids are kicking it, which it should if the temp is low enough. Does it do it all the time when idling or just after start up?

You may have a setting in YouTube that doesn't allow "non-friends" or some thing like that to view the video. I couldn't view it, tried logging in as well, no change.

Interesting I will have to see what is up. Since Google revamped YouTube everything is jacked, I guess.
