Engine stalls when idle?!?!?...WTF??

Engine runs fine, no weird noises or anything like that. But when idle it just loses rpms, and stalls after about a minute of sitting idle. I did just get a catback exhaust system (HKS true dual). It starts back up just fine, and I assume it has something to do with the exhaust, since it started after that, but any idea what might cause this?
