Default whats wrong!!!

i just got my kooks headers, x pipe and intake put on and everytime i press in the clutch it goes to about 500 rpms and sometimes stalls. i brought it back to the shop and they said the car needs to learn how you drive. is this true!!!

also I only got 20hp and 35ft lbs of torque. do these numbers sound right?
it sounds like the headers are rattling inside also, anyone else experience this?

PLEASE HELP!!

Are you using the stock canned tune? Or a custom canned tune?

prolly his tuning error, the MAF could be incorrectly connected, or he's right since our cars do have a learning computer
