Default Meth / methanol gone nuts

I just recently turned on my car and noticed it was idling like it wasn't getting fuel. Car is S/C and fuel pressure gauge shows 60 psi. When I rev the car battery voltage drops to 11-12v and starts cutting out. I have no clue what is going on. No codes are being thrown. I changed the battery and same symtom. I felt my tb at idle and it was freezing...maybe something is up with my meth kit? ANY HELP PLEASE.....

Junk stagg 2 Snow kit...this is the second time it has given me problems. I'm going to cool my car down and start it again to see if the symtom is gone.... My battery was good and I just wasted my time and money with it. Damn.... I'll keep you guys posted
