Default a4 dies..

I just bought a 2000 Camaro SS. It has pacesetter longtubes, ory, and a 3200 fuddle stall converter. When I am idling in drive the idle jumps from around 450 to 700 and when I am reversing slowly the car tends to die. Is this related to the stall? Is there anything to do to fix this?

probably not stall related. i'd check for engine codes and go from there.

After my Vig install my car acted like that, "hunting" idle when breaking coming to a stop, sometimes dying going slow in reverse. I increased the in gear idle speed and bumped up the line pressure with a tune and that took care of it.

You can check for any codes free by bringing the car to Auto Zone.
