I need more info to really give you a better guess, but I can tell you what was wrong with my car when it idled bad.

First thing was a huge air leak out of the turbo when I replaced stock IC pipes with Dejon Tool ones. That also broke my spark plugs because it was running so rich. Are you plugs ok looking or are they black or white?

Second thing I don't know WTF's wrong with my car but I'm looking into the electrical system for the spark cause its misfiring now.

Could use a little more info like if its only when idling and if your car runs fine if when you're driving around on the freeway.
