my mod list is an ETS full bolt on kit (precision 58mm turbo, tubulars, and intake) vibrant straight pipe, HKS ssqv blow off valve, 750cc injectors, kelford 272s,- im buying the BOV recirculation kit to see if it helps
why do so many people use that BOV, it is garbage for our cars since we have a MAF and you can not VTA since all the air is metered, ditch that valve, get something decent like the Perrin recirc. valve that I use and chances are your problem will fix itself.

see its not that I really like the ssqv, its the fact that it came on my car and i have $11.00 to put towards a new one haha but eventually ill probably get rid of the thing. it seems more obnoxious than useful
Well what I meant was, if you did disconnect either of those and didn't let the car do an idle learn procedure, it would cause the idle to act weird. I didn't do an idle learn after disconnecting my battery once and it didn't want to idle. Disconnected it again and let the car idle for 15 minutes and all was good.
I just installed my Kelford 272's and finished the install last night, Fired it up and it idled great even without a tune, once all was warmed up idle was rock solid at 1000 RPM.
Hks = Garbage. You rather get the Aps or something else.
i have this exact issue. I'm still wondering if it's my FP4R cams or my HKS Intake, or a combination of them. I noticed slight dips before the cams and with them the problem got worse. my tuner couldn't seem to figure it out. he made adjustments to my ecu, adjusted the idle screw....etc. tried telling me that it was my IAC valve. well i bought a new one and nothing has changed. i'm still living with it for now.
I have the same issue when flashed from 96420008 to rom 94170015. My idle dips in stop and go situations and feels like its going to stall. Whats weird it doesn't do it when going in reverse.
Tried messing with the bov, isv, intake, idle adjust/trims, leak test, etc...still don't know wtf is causing it
