There are only a few ports, but there maybe tee connected.

Brake booster
HVAP port
PCV
MAP and the ports for the Dash vacuum assisted controls.

I would also try putting a stock MAF on, possible that the porting job may have distrupted the area around the throttle blade.

Not sure of your year, do you have a EGR and is the AIR pump still connected.

If checking for a vacuum leak, try using a can of carb cleaner spray and spray a bit on each of the suspected area (one at a time) and see/watch for the RPM Change. Check around the manifold/head runners, Throttle Body, etc.

I really aggree with the idea of checking the throttle body blade. I have seen more then one throttle body where the blade would not close completely after a P/P was done to it or for some reason or another the cable driven TBs blade would not close completely even when stock

i deleted my EGR and AIR when i first got the car. the stock MAF and TB are P&P and have been for 2 years and no prob. i will chech all those locations for a leak. im also thinkin that my idle is messed up because i do need a tune bad for the things i have removed from the car
