Its the air coming out of the turbo inlet after your throttle body shuts and is travelling through the air flow meter. This makes the engine think its getting air when its actually not which stuffs up your mixtures and can cause the car to stall. Not really too much you can do about this other than fit a BOV or move your afm further away from the turbo
