Can you go into more detail? Only when engine is hot? A/C or defrosters on?

it doesnt seem to do it when i first start it. Just after it warmed up. Doesnt seem to matter what else is on. If I am coming to a stop sign and am coasting the idle drops almost all the way down. Sometimes it bumps back up before stalling and sometimes it doesnt

That's no fun at all.

I guess the first thing to check is the idle settings in your ROM. Check Desire Idle RPM Neutral under Idle.

Mine is 1297 when cold tapering to 852 when the engine is warm.

That's kind of a long shot but easy to look at and you NEVER know.

What intake do you have? Stock MAF pipe?

K&N Typhoon........worst intake ever.

Do a search on evom and you will be sure to see many threads with similar issues. I would bet this is your problem more than anything

Try and find someone who has a stock intake pipe and get the buschur filter kit.......you will have no issues after that.

Agreed.

It's a hit or miss part. I have the stock airbox stuff if you need to test it out.

I think it is a typhoon intake. It was already on the car when i got it, and im not sure what pipe it is. I dont have any of the original parts for this anymore.

Try swapping it out. I think I have most of the parts you'll need to test it.

Could be your stock cams aren't aggressive enough and are causing it to stall. You should try AT LEAST HKS 272's to rectify the issue.

Let me know,

Dave

You have the complete typhoon intake from what I remember seeing......you can try just putting the cone filter/maf from the typhoon to the stock maf pipe and see how that works (im not sure how it adapts so not 100% sure).

If you still have issues I would def. get the buschur kit but more than anything you need the stock maf pipe.....the typhoon is just bad design on K&N's part
