these cars tend to have rough idles. i see you have a turbo so maybe it is different. what is the variation in rpm at idle?

i would consider asking chickenwafer or mazdamaniac, but i would say you need to adjust your EMU

Goheesang.. you need to adjust your air/fuel ratio.. with the rx7s there is a lil screw that controls the air... near the AFM..

I'm not sure where its located on the 8's..

if that dont work then you have a vacuum leek some where (possibly one of your vacuum hoses are loose, have a hole in it, etc). I.E CHECK YOUR HOES! I MEAN HOSES

there is none on the 8, it's all electronically controlled by the ECU
