Did you make sure you got the opti on the car the right way? Are all the plug wires on the opti terminals? All wires on the plugs, ect. I would put money on it you put the opti on wrong though.

Re: Motor SHake after OPTI install

what was it doing before you changed the opti?

just make sure you hooked everything back up... check the wires to the maf, make sure the elbow is on all the way and isnt tucked into the throttle body
