Whats up... i just recently purchased a 91 talon TSi AWD with a jdm 6 bolt swap -16g turbo-upgraded fuel pump-upgraded injectors-hks airfilter-upgraded ic piping-apexi AFC--brembo brakes


i understand you guys CANT help too much without EXACT things i have but i purchased the car and went on vacation....i drove it around it runs good theres alot more goodies on it then what i mentioned thats all i know offhand

but the problem im having is when i run it or jus cruise sometimes when i come to a stop press the clutch the rpms drop and the car will die.....i figured mabye because the car was sitting for a year and only started now and then...so i ran the fuel threw and refilled with a higher octane fuel...my friend has the car while im gone he said he doesnt have a problem really if he sort of engine brakes....


me personally id go slow enough in gear to about 1000rpm then press the clutch and it would be fine...... i was thinking maybe an unregulated air issue? mabye the afc not tuned right?


i head back home in a week im going to give it an oil change change the oil sending unit and do the oil pan gasket jus for good measure.....

any lil help would be appreciated....


fyi i got the car from a friend who had lost his license he just wanted the car to go to a good home and for the price it was well worth it......im new to DSM....but ive owned plenty of cars domestic and foriegn just your guys input would be appreciated.....


this site has so much reading material and i didnt know where to start WTF so i figured id make a base thread to start...ill get the actual mod listing soon!


BTW sorry for sounding like a douchebag
 
possibly the flywheel?

eh i know how to drive it now i hardly stall it.... I DEF need to have the fkin thing tuned though ...it jus started backfiring every1nce in awhile while starting to take off.....scares folks....................but no smoke or anything and not often
