you have more than one issue going on if it idles at 4500. sounds like you need to tear the whole intake manifold off, install all new gaskets and seals, check the TB for proper operation, adjust the TPS, do a valve lash adjustment, adjust ignition timing, check timing belt alignment, and more.

- new spark plugs & wires

- new air/fuel filters
- clean injectors/iacv/egr/fitv
- bleed the coolant
- new pcv
- adjust valves and ignition
- adjust idle from tb's screw and throttle cable
- check does sensors work properly: map, iat and tps (and try calibrating tps)
- then check wires, connectors and hoses

check o2 sensors and vacuum/exhaust leaks (check all the seals - IM/header/TB gaskets, injector seals, maybe even buy valve cover gasket set...)
check timing. after that: double check timing

clogged cat might you give some trouble as well (usually when driving) - check cats condition

if none of these seem to work - do compression and leak tests
and if you have chipped ecu and youre running it just with basemap, it might not work as well than properly tuned one

those are basic maintenance as well.

Keep throwing parts at it, that'll fix it.
