Question Idle all messed up...help needed

ok guys i need some help with my car. its an 03 evo 8. so about 3 months ago it started sounding weird and acted like it wanted to stall when stopped in 1st gear or in reverse. well thats when i had my OEM 9 BOV on. switched it back to my Forge one and thought the problem was fixed. well not really. 2 weeks ago got so bad that i had to take it to the dealership. they said it was my alternator. bam 400 bucks later problem still here. then my clutch peddle got stuck to the floor right after i picked her up from the dealership. thus another week goes by and i need a new clutch and spark glugs and everything included with both of them. so now ive spent over 2000 bucks in the past 2 weeks and i just got my car back today and is still doing the same thing! im about to crash her into a tree. i have no idea what to do now. idk if it could be from a tune i got like 2 yrs ago finally just acting up. or if theres something wrong with my fuel pump or injectors. anyone who has a clue please help! oh and ive heard that any intake will throw off ur idle a little. even cause ur car to wanna stall out sometimes. but this is getting ridiculous. its way outta hand now and driving me crazy.

heres what ive gotten done to her:
invidia exhaust, o2 back except still got a cat on
k&n intake
custom tune from jestrtuning
apexi turbo timer
forge recirculating BOV
walboro 255 fuel pump

have but not installed yet:
injen UIP & LIC
forge MBC

if anyone has had the same problems lemme know please.

you could install all the parts and get a tune.

i am guessing u got a vaccum leak.
MAF needs to be rescaled.

you got a WB? what are ur AFRs at idle?
