poor idle engine stalls when throttle is depressed. car sat for 10+ years, i have replaced caps, rotors, wires and plugs. i also drained fuel tank and put in new fuel. car runs a little better but its not running how its supposed to. i have also checked fuel regulators they hold vacuum and fuel pressure is 57 psi to the first regulator from fuel pump.. where should i go from here?

You did change the Fuel Filter too, right ?
Is this a US spec 32v (S3) or a ROW 16v ?

injectors probably need cleaning, balancing after sitting for 10 yrs.. Search here for recommendations on who does this. I would think you should flush the lines. And probably replace the rubber lines. I'm guessing whoever let it sit that long did not change the lines from original.

replace the Idle control valve and O2 sensor and the MAF

its a 32 valve, i drained the gas tank cleared fuel lines and put in new fuel.. new fuel filter.. car will idle sometimes but if i give it any throttle it dies

also fuel pressure in the fuel rail is about 32 psi
