Thumbs down car gets lean at idle...

my car usually idles at like 13.9-14.9 then all of a sudden when i connect my aem ems to my laptop idle goes to like 15.8-16.9

I'm afraid to plug it into the laptop again to try to datalog in risk of blowing my damn motor

also no calibrations were even touched!!! I would have noticed if i accidently changed a calibration by the blinking red message at the bottom left of the screen

yup he is probably right. where do you have your wideband grounded.

also does the idle get audibly rough?

if not you're probably not really going that lean.
