Default why am i stalling?

car is finally running and boosting. when i come to stop sign i slow down to coast to stop and when i step on clutch i stall. when coasting down a/f drops off the gauge way in lean like it's supposed to on hondas, but usually goes up once sitting idling. if before it stalls i stab the gas just a little it comes up and keeps idling. i'm running a breather filter instead of running it to the intake before turbo. could this be the reason? set up is as follows:
d16y7 obd2
td04L off '02 wrx
dsm 450cc with resistor box
msd btm
small 2 inch tall x 3.5 inch diameter air cleaner as my filter
safc settings as follows:
throttle % at 98lo 99hi
-38 from 1k-4k
-37 at 4.5k
-36 above
i would think i'm running rich as hell and want to change settings to -42 or -40...what do you folks think?

no more stalling. set my safc as follows:
throttle 45%lo 46%hi
corrections -46 across lo -38 across hi
no more stalling. a/f gauge looked just like it did stock and car pulled a lot better.
now i just gotta change my oil line/return line before they go out on me.

Cool you had me worried there for a second cause I'm using the same turbo on the same set-up. But If I have the same problems with my AFC I'll try your settings. So how do you like the TDO4 turbo ?

i haven't pressed it too hard yet since i haven't dyno tuned it yet, but so far i'm happy. the corrections are the equivalent of having 240's on lo throttle and 280's on hi throttle. getting dyno tuned thursday and i'll fill you in more then.
