Check for Vaccum leaks. Did you have any mods added to the new set up? If so you may have to get the car tuned.

yuppers what Bad chad said .... Give us some more details on your set up and if anything changed .. If you got more mods done to your car the Air Flow tables couldve been jepordized on the tune. Could be a vacuum leak , or maybe IAC , or MAF issues ..

Make sure they are both plugged in. The maf on your car has an adaptor harness, make sure its not damaged and is plugged in. Any issues call me.

Make sure your getting plenty of air to the motor.

Really sounds like your in need of a tuner/scanner.

ok guys looking for some help me and my turner are getting into it. And I cant find any answers anywhere! I jut did a motor build and he tuned my car before everything went fine I ended up having to replace the pcm and alternator. So he retuned it and it is idleing around 1800 to 2000 and then it calms down then start idleing high again. Any suggestions on what it could be? i also am having a misfire?
