Default SOS charger kit high idle after a track session

Went to the track (road course) today and after the 1st session the car started idling very high around 2500-3000RPM. It had been running great on the street for the past month, but obviously pushing on the track is a totally different ball game. Also, noticed in full boost in vetch oil pressure would drop from 80 to 65-70 ( i think this is normal but please confirm). Otherwise temps were amazing, water and oil didn't go about 185 and were between 165-185 for 20+ laps in a row! Any idea what the high idle could be? I will be sending some data logs to my tuner Jeff Evans next week, but have a feeling its mechanical, some sort of vacuum leak or something. Looked around but couldn't find anything.

No idea about your high idle. Mine doesn't do that after a lapping day. I'm comptech supercharged though. BUt those temps are amazing!! That v-mount must be doing it's job.

Vacuum hose off somewhere... Oil pressure will drop in VTEC. VTEC is essentially a controlled oil leak.

Most likely a vacuum leak.

Great to hear about the results! Wish i had space for a v mount :-(

Get rid of AC ...it's a race car no need for AC!

I'm going to post pics later maybe someone on here can identify the missing hose...

Wondering if my issue could be related to my valve cover breather. Ran a line from the front port to catch can and then covered up the back port. Lots of blow by coming out of the back port. Thoughts?

Is your throttle body cable out of adjustment? Also put your fingers over all the caps, I had a pinhole size leak in mine once.
