Default 00 civic si idle question

when i turn my civic on everything is fine, then i give it a little gas and when i comes back down the idle drops to about 3-4 hundred. and stays there for a while like it wants to turn off. what can i do to fix this? by the way i have a 255 walboro fuel pump and 9:1 84 mm bore je pistons. i used to have turbo on this and now that i took it off i cant get it to stay at a good idle. someone help me please.
