I dont know if this has anything to do with it eitehr but when i installed my intake the air flow sensors needed to be installed properly for the car to idle if not, as soon as i let off the gas the car woujld immediately shut off. thats all i can think of

Tranny Light come on at all? Youre gonna have to be more detailed. This could be a ton of problems.

There is a vacum hose under the throttle body, if this is unplugged the car wont know how to idle, if you ancidently knocked it off, or didnt connect it, this could be your problem
