OK, First make sure your PCV lines are hooked back up and the inlet tube did not fall off anywhere.

Where did you buy the intake and tuner from?
Who's tune is in there?
Did you give the vendor you PCM code?
Did you tell the vendor your transmission (Auto/Manual)?
Does it run fine when you return to stock?
Does it do it in neutral too or only in gear?
