Sorry I cant be much of help. The first thing I would say is take off all that shyt going back towards stock. You have a 2k1 R and have nitrous on it? Im not going to judge you or anything, but I had my R since 4/98. I had 0 problems until I started changing things. I just want you to think about that. The dealer is not your friend. Unless you dont mind giving them your money. Ive been to every acura dealer here in atl. My favorite one is acura carland. When I say favorite. Ill just say I left there the most times with some change in my pocket unlike the rest of them.
.....well, do the usual with a timing light to see what your timing is set to.
Also, you can't really judge by the stock tach because it is off.
If you car is almost dying at idle, then it sounds like it is getting close to 600rpm... Any lower and it will die.
When did this start happening?
I'm guessing you're running colder plugs for the nos, did you gap them correctly?
Also, is your ignition working ok? I've seen brand new ignitions fail very soon after installation...
You could also play with the idle screw to help out. Turn it 1-2 turns counter clockwise while letting the car idle and see if that helps...
