Stock tune + 10* overlap cam + a4= horrible idle... Your iac counts are probably close if not completely maxed out, tunning & increasing the size of the hole in the tb blade will help bring the counts down & control your idle, as well as having the idle speed bumped up to around 800-900 rpms... But I don't recommend drilling your tb hole unless you have a way of keeping an eye on your iac counts... And a random missfire code is very common with the addition of a cam too.

No, I would have the car properly tuned & depending on the lsa of the cam, have them bump the idle speed to around 800-850.

Mine did the same thing. A good tune will definitely take care of that.
