Default Weird idle?

Hi i have a eg hatch 94 si with a d15b and a z6 head running a p28 and a greddy fuel management system. ( this all came with the car when I bought it)
I just replaced the battery, engine oil n filter , spark plugs, spark plug wires.
And when the car is turned on this is the idle.. It goes from 1000-0 rpm and just keeps bouncing loke that then 30 secs later it goes to around... 1300 rpm. Ill upload vid real soon.

You'll know when you pull the plugs to do the test. to much/little fuel can have an effect on the idle

Air in the coolant system can screw with your idle. Try bleeding the system maybe?

Did you reconnect the power cable? Disconnect it and reconnect it. Did it click back into place? The engine won't turn over unless that circuit is connected. Is the IACV Snug against the throttle body?

You mean the intake manifold. I wouldn't correct, but don't want OP to get confused.
