The car is faster than ever before but it stalls once in a while when i'm braking or if I gun it then just let the idle drop (but this is only once in a while not every time). Could that still be the vacuum stuff egr valve tha sort of thing. The air filter is a brand new K&N airfilter. plugs, cap, rotor, wires, fuel filter, air filter, ignition module underneath cap, synthetic oil, oil filter, battery, its all new and the thing still idles rough. any help would be appriciated.

Thanks alot,
Thomas
Might be an EGR related problem??? Thats about all my mind can think of at 7:30 in the morning
