Car Won't Idle

Yo guys, I recently reinstalled my AEM and switched my TPS wires. Switching the TPS helped a lot with the startup. It started up easily compared to before. But now, the car won't seem to idle. It'll start, then it'll stall. Any hints on what the problem might be? It idled fine with the stock ECU.

To figure out ideling I used to warm up using standard (stock) ecu, and then swap in my aem, and try to get it to hold idle...

As for cold starts, try adding fuel untill you smell it, and then back off untill completely lean, somewhere in the middle it should start... (By adding fuel I'm talking about the warmup enrichment... etc..)

Bottom Line, the stock map sucks...
