Nostrum fuel injectors, post install idle surge issues

Dealing with a strange issue here.

Replaced injectors recently with some Nostrum 25%+ units and am having a strange idle issue. Everything runs totally fine, for quite a while actually, with fuel control within 6% then suddenly out of nowhere the idle starts surging and fuel trims go out of whack sending me 13%+- rich and lean. I got a log showing what is happening but don't see anything outstandingly wrong given how well it runs at first, and everything follows appropriately with the surge. Anybody ever experience the same or willing to take a look at my issue and take a stab at what could be wrong? Thanks in advance.

Curious why did you go from XDI +30 to Nostrum +25?

Agreed. I’m running Nostrum +52 and the support from LPE and Nostrum was pathetic. It took a lot of tinkering to get the car to run decent. It will be a cold day in hell before I buy fuel injectors from LPE again.

My issues are fixed for the record. It was a goof up in the tune that I oversaw when I did all the changes I needed to make in the file.

I kept having issues at throttle let off. My cylinder 1 injector crapped out and then not even 400 miles later cylinder 4 decided to the same.
