My car did the same thing. The hole in the tb was driled to big after the cam install. This made all but impossible to tune the idle. It would start perfectly when the motor was cold, but once it was warm it would acted up. Also I would rev up when I slowed and stopped, hanging there for a couple of seconds.

So you swapped the heads and the cam?
Have you had it tuned yet? Cars will run like crap when you change that much without adjusting the computer to compensate for it.

Is the car tuned? If so to fix the problem I had to need a new tb blade or weld up the one you have and drill it out again.

PS: my TB is electronic, they switch from cable to electronic with models 06 n up dont know why.... thats why i couldnt install fast90/90tb

If you have ETC, no drilling should be necessary, just additional tuning.

additional tuning seems to be the answer... went down to the shop today n uninstalled the spark plugs they were smoked out due to either high or low gasoline pumpin through by the tuning...
