I am trying to diagnose why my car acts like this. I have a capacitor and a Orbital Deep Cycle battery on my SR. When I put on the air over #2 button or say if I put my headlights on or open the door to activate the seatbelt motor, my idle gets affected by this? Is this normal?

The same thing happens to me. Also when the power windows are going down. The idle drops even more if I hold the button while the motor stopped. I was thinking about making a ground wire setup, but it looks like you already did that.

yeah i guess thats what happens. But a worse thing happened to me tonite, I blew my turbine inlet gasket! It sounds like a blown supercharger! lol, Im going to use a coke can and Copper RTV to do the quick fix, this will all get replaced later on with my bigger turbo upgrade. Thanks for your input on this.
