car cutting off when gear goes to neutral
hey all, recently I am experiencing this issue with car cutting off while driving. When I slow down for a stop or for a turn and I put the gear in neutral, the car will stall while moving. It doesn't stall every time, just once in a while, but most of the times the rpm will go down very low as if it will stall, then kicks back to around 1000rpm.
I figured it only happens after driving for at least 30 mins.
Does anyone know what is causing this?
I bought the car with intake, exhaust, dp, cams, and tp with already having it tuned. I replaced the tp to hfc after I bought it, and I'm wondering if this is causing the car to act like this..????? Could this be a tuning issue?
Any help is appreciated! Thanks,

Your BOV isn't VTA, right?

with those issues I usually start here:
fresh plugs
boost leak test
clean the maf
if the issue persists I look into the tune and make sure the idle settings match what the engine is actually doing. often I find the RPM biss screw was adjusted by a newb mechanic/tuner instead of from within the tune.
if it still persists I'm looking at the ISC
