The car has been running really bad at idle since i bought it 3 months ago. I installed all new dejon powerhouse intercooler pipes and a 1g bov with a stop leak kit. I also recirculated it and it still runs like shit. I changed the plugs I'm not sure if changing the wires would do anything but it seems like its misfiring but I do not have a check engine light. Any advice is appreciated.
 
Pulling in unmetered air will cause the car to not run properly. All depends on the size of the leak. If you want to test it, unplug the MAF. The car wants to stall because all of that air is unmetered (boost leak in vacuume).
