Just wondering if it only does it when you come to a stop( hitting the brakes). Mine does this but i figured it to be either really rich and it is having a hard tme burning off the fuel, or the brakes are putting a strain on the system(pully driven). Mine goes down but right after pops right back up. I figured the brakes because if i comne to a slow stop which requires no braking effort, or throwing the car in nuetrel then hitting the brakes, there is no bog

Yeah I have the same mods a custom tune and it happens to me also. I'm really set on the fact that its a vacum leak. An interesting suggestion I heard was if your on stock IC piping, that it tends to leak a little bit with some time? Let's keep it going though cause it seems to be a common problem.

im going to start pulling stuff after i find some stockers to put back on to test with... i may switch out all the hose claps as well....

just kills me that it only happens rolling up on a light with the clutch in... if it was a leak i would think i would see more painful excel and what not

I doubt it is a leak. It is just more work on the system when you brake. It shouldnt be a big deal as long as the car doesnt stall.

Mine only does this when I'm crawling along in stop and go traffic and only intermittently. I run a stock BOV, K&N panel filter in the stock air box and the Vishnu Stage 0( Xede & catback ). When I ran the Stage 0+( with a downpipe ) it stalled out on me much more often. I have no idea why.

I have the same problem, it didnt happen with my intake after I put in the greddy type-s safc and injectors it started happening. Funny thing is when I reset the ecu it idled like stock for 3 days then it came back.

i think its the injen intake. i had the same problem with my injen intake and uicp, but mine wont stall. it feels like it wants to, then it shoots back up and idles fine. only does it when i **** into neutral from a higher rpm, or rev the car above 4k

Isn't there an Idle Air control valve in our cars? If so it may be gunked up. Just a thought.

Intake pipe and no tune, no doubt it will do it. Just that simple.
You should be glad it doesn't stall. Your lucky.
