Default Stereo/Subwoofer install and low idling

I recently installed the AVIC F90BT + Bazooka Subwoofer and it's causing my tC to idle pretty low (engine shakes). Anyone know what might be causing this; any fixes?

i'm sure you disconnected your battery when doing your audio install. just start up your car and let it idle for about 10 min and you should be fine. the ecu was just reset and needs to relearn.

Ahh...make sense. The idle is much better today.

Thanks!

Same thing happened to me - I also have an Injen CAI. My battery juice was a little on the low side, too. So, drove for awhile, stalled twice, then the idle was fine. Then replaced the batter the next day and had the low idle again and had to go through that again.
