Checked the battery connection and if it was...

    Cold high idol and tach not functioning properly

I should mention it is pre smog in CA which means it has a 4" down pipe off the turbo and then comes down about just past passanger door and then angles tip out so shes loud lol. Also the truck has 410s out back so when I do step on it feels...
