Vented Blow off Valve?

They tend to make MAF cars run rich when they vent out, which in turn causes your car to stall.

Vacuum leak? This can plague the NA KA too - worth checking.

Recirculate it if you can. Not sure if the apexi twin chambers can be though. I don't know much about 'em

i dont think you can. gonna have to swap bovs to stock (or something you can recirc), or get a safc.

do some research man. a safc is an air flow controller. apexi makes a nice one. it will have a decel air setting. can be had for 100-300. research, research, research.
