In Topic: B4 rough idle won't rev past 4500rpm

If its an oiled K&N (I think they all are), you've dun-goofed. It needs to be the dry unwashable type. Genuine is the best and flows just fine, or STi, it takes the same size as WRX I believe. I've used a Cosworth before too. You'll have to clean the MAF with CRC Mass Air Flow Sensor Cleaner if you've used an oiled filter - do not touch the MAF element, just follow the instructions on the can.
Catback (after the cat) shouldn't require a re-tune. But if the cat was changed for a higher flowing one, it would need a re-tune.
Yes resetting the ECU just involves disconnecting the battery for 10-15min. If your car has the Brant alarm still, this can be problematic as the code may reset - but it should be fine.
Unfortunately it is an oiled one [emoji30]
Thanks for the advice mate

could be two things.
rough idle sounds like a spark issue -- fouled plugs or failing coilpack? Either that, or idle speed too low - usually a gummed up IACV. Take off your intercooler and give it a blast of UEC. Wouldn't suggest removing it unless you have new gaskets handy.
Is the 4500rpm problem also a result of misfire?
Okay thanks matte I'll give that a try I'm hoping it's just sparks for rough idle.
No the 4500rpm started after I got my catback put on

It wont rev past 3500/4500 if it detects excess load or knock. Until the ecu picks up everything is ok again and it perks up. That condition has happened to me with a clogged air filter on the highway one time, no check engine light either. It might need an ecu reset? But if its idling rough, it might be a prick to get it out of limp mode. Its just the ecu protecting the engine from another underlying issue.
I've just replaced air filter with K&N high flow so not too sure about that mate. Does a ecu reset just involve disconnecting the battery?
