Car's down for a few things:
1. Alternator - output, male connector contacts are eroding and are breaking off. I have it "ghetto rigged" for now, but it's dying fast.
2. Battery, Red Top - has cracked and leaking acid. Picking up tomorrow @ AutoZone (under warranty).
3. Turbo Internal WG Housing - needs replaced (again) due to poor modification (I'll take the blame for this one). Engine works, but can't push it hard...had to bail from NJMP Wednesday after second session because of boost leak from the WG.
4. O2 Sensor ("S") Pipe needs to be upgraded to SS. This can be done anytime and does not prevent the car from running.

New alternator is in, and new battery in as well. Everything is working with no CEL's after a test drive.

Engine is starting to die at idle, as in, completely shuts off when I take my foot off the accelerator, whether I'm pulling into a driveway or beginning to slow down at a stop light. Then, it's as if its flooded and I can't get it started. If I hold the gas pedal to the floor, it seems to help it start. I'm not throwing any codes yet.

Found one of the MAF wires to be partially frayed pretty close to the connector, but was able to get some solder around it...let's see if that was the culprit.

I'm trouble shooting the Evap solenoid as we speak.

have you tried reflashing the ECU with your latest tune to reset it?
