I know it may sound odd but check your MAF sensor. Make sure its clean.

Sounds like the tune to me. I had a similar issue with my Trifecta tune following a cam install, but Vince got it squared away after one datalog.

I did clean the maf and I told him I had cams already and I am going on my 8th datalog already but no it wont idle before it dies it will just die after I push in the clutch and the rpms drop...any suggestions on what I can tell Vince to help me solve this problem? If it cant get figured out could I just swap the cans back to stock

If you blip the throttle as the rpm's are dropping, does it keep it from stalling? I usually tap the pedal right after starting it up before the rpm's drop and that seems to keep the rpm's from bouncing too much. I still get some fluctuation in the rpm's but it hasn't been serious enough to make me want to send a datalog.

Just gotta keep looking for an air leak. Have a friend lightly rev the car in neutral and while he is doing that, aim a propane bottle in your engine bay in places you might have an air leak. Just turn the nozzle so propane is leaking out, but don't light it. If you shoot it near the air leak, it will get sucked up and burned in the engine and it should rev up.
