That's what I said regarding position--blow-through is after the compressor. However, I did not know that Stillen was draw-through. That may be part of the problem. If the IAT readings are way off then it would not surprise me if there were idle issues.

That's right. What would be nice is to take the IAT from the MAF along with a MAP meter and black-box it so that we got an equivalent 5V output which could be fed back to the ECU as a surrogate MAF reading i.e. spoof the MAF voltage using a MAP and IAT sensor. I imagine it would take quite a bit of mapping to get right, but getting rid of the MAF sensor would save a lot of headaches.
