Exclamation Got some codes.. and some problems.. help

So i was driving doing about 35mph, then i hit it and got up to 50mph when my car sounded funny. I slowed down and when i came to a stop or pushed in the clutch it would stall. I got out and ran the computer with my peak, and got this:

Miss fire in cly1, cly2, cly3, cly4, cly5, cly6

Secondary air system injector valve jammed

"idle control system" idle speed not plausible.

I have never heard of the last two, What could be wrong? Idle control valve?
Any leads would be great guys. (and i spent alll fricking day detaling it and this happend the first 10min i took it out tonight. )

The car is a 1996 BMW M3, with a aa supercharger and a lot of other bolts ons.

Clear the codes, drive the car at a normal pace for a day and see what comes back.

How long have you had the super charger? Any chance you got water on the engine while detailing it?

I didn't clean the engine, that day. But the Covering for Windshield Wiper Motor Assembly, is falling off and doesn't seal up against the front windshield. But the car ran fine for the first 10 min, the i grabbed some coffee, got back in the car first 2 miles fine, then i hit it and pooff problems. Im going to try cleaning my icv first. If i pressed in the clutch and had the car idle on its own, it would stall, as long as i was giving it gas, it ran like crap but didnt stall. And i have had my idle dip here and there.
Supercharger has 10k on it.

Sounds to me like an intake or vacuum leak. I would check the intake tube for cracks and all the hose connections along the intake track.
