i have a act 2600 pressure plate/clutch t/o bearing, clutch fork installed with a new rebuilt engine. New master/slave cylinders. car runs fine when the engine is cold, warms up car dies when clutch is pressed while driving or just in idle. i'm idling at 900rpm. 16g, evo3 ex/o2 housing,starion intercooler.

Try setting your base idle & of course check for vacuum/boost leaks, as well as any unmetered air entering the system between the turbo & maf.
 

What do i set base idle for this clutch setup? also if i change it to stock one, will it solve the prob? love the way the clutch grab though.

Could be crank walk as well so measure the play at the crank pully.

Just suggesting your base idle is low & causing stalling issues. there would be nothing specific to any particular clutch. I don't have time at the moment or I would look up the link but check Vfaq for base idle set & give it a try.
