You know when I DISCONNECT THE AFM it idles just fine. Even if ts cold so i know my wires plugs and injectors are working fine. Im gonna go tomorrow and pick up a timming light and a new Multimeter and readjust my CPS.

Ok, I somehow missed the whole thing in your first post about the AFM and how it effects the idle..... I would bet that its your AFM.... Have you tried another AFM on your car or yours on another car???? If not, then I would before worring about anything else....

You can test the afm, it should idle at 15-20hz on a warm idle and increase with rpms. This is on the ks signal. Strip back a bit of wire a few inches from the connector and see what you get. Mine turned out to be the connector with very similar symptoms as yours, of course i already replaced the afm with out testing it like i should have :)

I have a SAFC 2 and its reading the karman signal and its around 20-25. Sad story now MY CLUTCH WHENT OUT :( an hour ago. Man i barely made it home. Its my 4 year old Spec 3 finally thew in the towel . I dont have the money for another one for now, but im gonna go with a stock pp for now and upgradded six puck ceramic disk. Until i get my income tax in february or march and can get another performance clutch. Well for now ill leave the idle problem alone and ill get the tranny out this weekend. thanks for the input guys
