Re: need a few extra rpm s

long story short, the car runs really well. its just at a stop like at a red light while the car is in gear, it sometimes wants to go dead. its only idleing at about 500 rpms. put the car in nuetral, it will idle fine. map sensors, tps , iac distributor and all parts that go with it have been replaced.
