The first thing you want to check is to see if the vaccum hose on the MAP sensor is connected. It is a little black box located on the driver side firewall (at least it is on the A-Spec FD).

Sometimes after a hard run on the highway my idle will sound rough. Even though map sensor was still connected and stock port. Sounds nice but!
