I have a 2002 WS6 Trans Am and got a MS4 cam installed and tuned last week and my car wont quit dying when I drive!!! Its so frustrating!! I have spent so much money and it is not running right. It mainly cuts off when put in drive and reverse and when slowing down or stopping. So basically all the time! I keep getting told it is because my clamps are POS's and leaking real bad causing my car to run bad. I do not know what to do. I have a loudmouth y pipe and it is sounding bad when I give it gas. I dont know if I need to get a x pipe dual or what I have a Yank SS 3600 stall, and pacesetter headers. The car has been tuned twice and he said it willo not be tuned properly until the exhaust is fixed. Any suggestions?? I am hoping it is just the exhaust and not something else.

So my gto is doing the same thing when I push the clutch in to stop it wants to idle wierd and die.
I do have a o2 thats stripped and leaking (im replacing tommorrow btw) but anyways when the check engine light comes on and off we put it on a programmer and it said lean bank 1 and rich bank 2???
Do you think it could be the o2 causing this? or the tune?

I know nothing of your car, just stating the obvious.

Plus some people kept telling me it was the tune because they think SNL is no good, but Im sure its the o2.

If Matt tuned it and its dying its the tune. He is not very experienced with tuning anything with a cable throttle body.

mine was doing the same, i upped the idle timing and idle airflow. Also set the idle a tad bit higher and it barely surges.. when i say barely i mean 50rpm. Still in the process of tuning it though. I'm a tuning noob i hope i dont destroy ****

If I were to stop too fast with the rpms up, then the rpms would bounce up and down and if i didnt give it gas it would die. But sometimes it would catch itself.
I havent really had a problem lately because I know how to work it lol but I still gotta get that o2 replaced and then take it back to matt and have him check it out.

They have a big following on the GTO board. Those guys should get out more and experience what else is out there.
