Engine runs lumpy after being driven hard
Hi guys I've noticed that after I've driven my S2000 hard on track when I come into the pits it runs very lumpy and wants to stall? Any ideas? I also use this car daily and it's normally fine

when I restart the engine after track work the idle is very very low and wants to stall with the car shaking badly, once the rpm is ups it seems to be ok

Pop the hood and let everything cool down. Everything is heat soaked including the intake so all the air coming in is hot, the intake temp sensor reads this and leans the fuel out thus less fuel less power. Mine does it on hot muggy days.

That is my thought as well. ECU isn't adjusting idle properly to account for intake air temp change.
