BOV not recirculated?

Id say bov if its atmospheric is your problem. Do you have an atmospheric (aftermarket) bov?

If it isn't the BOV then you should bring your idle up. You can turn a screw in the middle of the intake mainfold. Its in between the #2 and #3 intake ports. You'll see it. When I was dying at idle when I came to a stop I adjusted the idle and it ran great and stopped dying.

If it still tries to stall after you've raised the idle, just tap the gas. That way when its on its way down (due to starvation of metered air) it will be like giving it a little bit of air. Your AIV may be messed up too. So it could be the BOV, the AIV, or a combination of the two.

So you can adjust the screw in the middle of the intake manifold? that's the AIV right? My car dies on idle too. I've never tried adjusting the screw in the middle fo the manifold before though. I'll have to try that. It's that white, big phillips head shaped screw right? I've only adjusted the little screw on the throttle.

I was also told that what might be causing it is that my AIV might be dirty and I might have to take it out to clean it. I still have to try that also.

Hey SR20DET guy, a good way of making the car not die on idle is: When your going to stop or go to neutral, keep it in gear until your rpm drops to about 1,000 - 1,500 so that it can catch itself, then switch to neutral. This is what I do.
