did you try an idle relearn?

most likely it needs a tune to get the IAC set up right.

i was told you can fiddle with the throttle stop adjustment to get it to idle better. but this is only a temporary band aid.

look into a tune.

doesnt sound like it needs a tune, just sounds like you gotta find a vaccuum leak

Did this on my first FAST 90mm install. you have to use the allen head black valley cover bolts that came with the intake. The stockers won't let the intake mount flush with the heads so you have a big vacuum leak.

I think there were issues with the MAP sensor leaking too.

definitely sounds like a vacuum leak. I normally use a small propane torch and rubber hose when looking for vacuum leaks.
