The motor runs, pulls, idles and Spools up fine.My Problem is:once the car gets to operating temperature and I come down the gears to a stop the car wants to die.If I catch it quick enough I can stop it from cutting out or with clutch control i can keep it runningAnyone have any ideas??How about the screw on my intake manifold?Could timing be off a littleit idles at 900rpm the rest of the time.

Have you checked for boost leaks? Do you have an atmospheric BOV?

I have the exact same problem.

Its the fault of my atmospheric BOV.kinda acts like a vaccum leak in symptoms.

I would point towards the bov as well... or boost leaks somewhere in your piping.

try disconnecting the vaccum line to the bov (and of course plugging up that line) to prevent the bov from opening and go drive it like that. if it still gives you problems try spraying carb cleaner on all your hose connections and intercooler piping to check for leaks. if there are any holes or leaks, the motor's idle will shoot up momentarily due to the carb cleaner:)
