evo 4 problems

hi i'm new here , i've had my evo 4 for 3 years and its starting to play up . it runs lumpy at idle almost cutting out sometimes . everyone i spoke to said it would be the maf sensor so i got one and changed it this morning but the problem is still there , i've checked all the vacuum pipes but they seem to be ok . any suggestions would be most appreciated

I would start with a good boost leak. then i would take the throttle body of and sensors and clean it all completely with throttle body cleaner.make sure you mark the tps to line it back up right..then i would clean up the maf .make sure your plugs and spark plugs are ok

Clean up the Idle speed control motor.....could have filled with crud...if not replace.
Then use evoscan to reset the idle speed.
