Have you made sure there are no vacum leaks?

Buy a scan/tune system, post the tune and a data log... Then, someone may be able to help. W/o that type of info, it's strictly a guessing game...

Probably just an easy tweak to the start up airflow tables. Any local tuner should be able to fix that.

As for the car blowing up by revving to 2000 rpms, I doubt that will happen.
