Will need more info.

Is the car tuned, what kind of mods, have you checked for boost leaks, verified spark plugs are good etc.

it has has a conservative tune to try and fix the idle issue but no luck by previous owner. Ive checked spark plugs and coil packs and had to regauge the plugs since they were sitting at like .30. I've changed TPS. When searching the car the tune paperwork said that the TPS wasnt reading correctly. It was reading sparactic like from 0 to 22 to 36 to 67 to like 93 contantly even at idle. After I changed the TPS it didnt fix the issue. Um when i checked the ECU it seemed that one of the plugs wasnt plugged in all the way so I took it out and plugg was d it back in and it started idling fine until about a day or two and went back to idling like crap. It will die when cold, or i try to feather the gas when cold. Even when i rev it up it will drop right down and die. When its warm it will idle around 500 to 700 at best. Boost leak test is next on the do list.
mods are
jd coil packs
tomei exhaust
ets intake
Koyorad radiator
AGP intercooler
