Need advice asap!! 700 whp Evo Idle problems

2006 Evo MR
fully Built making 700 whp
after visiting AMS two weeks ago to get the F1 Intake and the new TB they have installed ,I drove the car home 600 miles without problems and parked it since then I drove it a few times and after hard acceleration the car struggled to Idle buf after a while it ran just fine , well the car is been sitting at home for a few days and I went to start it and to my surprise the evo won stay on idle anymore, it would just idle for a little bit then the Af gauge starts dropping from 14.7 + to 10 then dies , if you gas it alittle bit the car sound like if it was getting too much gas ( kind of like old cars) then it dies

i know it isnt a big deal and AMS will help me out to fix it up ,BUT they are close right now and this is streesing the hell out of me !!!


could it b a bad 02 sensor

It possibly could be a bad boost leak? Is there any hissing sounds from the engine bay and maybe check your o2 sensor and plugs

how did the plugs look? they don't just go bad, so there has to be an underlying issue. were they just old? well, good luck and have fun!
