Default superchip problem

hi there,
I have a superchip programer and i installed Hi performance tune on my 2005 GT and when I turn on the AC the rpm goes below 500 rev and the engine goes off. Also at idle it does the same thing the engine goes off when i make any stop.By the way I am not from the U.S. and we are using here 95 octane which should ok with this tune. Do u have any suggestions.One more thing 87 ocatne works fine but the power that hi perfomance tune gives is way much better.
Thanks

Increase the idle speed if the tuner has that option.

i would return it to stock and see if it still happens, if it doesn't . . . then the tune you have is a load of crap, need one from brenspeed, evolution, or bamachips. . .

if it does still happen, take it to the dealership and have them fix it. . .

other that that . . . prolly could check the idle rpm's on the tuner, but if it only happens when you turn on the A/C, i doubt that would be it
