try cleaning out the ports on the throttle body. sometimes the iac valve can stick causing a low idle issue. if that doesnt cure it, it may ultimately need replacement.

check your cam timing... my friend got a sir2 b16a and when he put it in when cold it would be fine but as soon as it warmed up it would sputter then take off.... the intake cam was off a tooth or 2
