screw the idle screw all the way down after your car has been warmed up, i leave mine all the way screwed in, and it idles fine now.
not that it has anythign to do with it, but you could reground your fuel harness and ignitions for the hell of it.

Yah just play with the idle speed screw on top of the dynamic chamber/tb to get it to be steady, and then play with the idle stop screw on the side of the tb closest to the firewall near the bottom of the tb until the idle is where you want it. You can also play with the variable resistor (idle a/f mixture) for smoother idle too, worth a shot.

check the tps and make sure that is ajusted correctly. that messed with my idle quit a bit. i took off my actuators a while ago and i was idling at like 1500 or so and then i just removed my Y pipe and went toa single 2 1/4 exhaust with hollow pre cats and no main cat. and she now idles smoothly at 1000 rpms. idle screw is turned all the way in.
