Sounds about right. ITR pumps are $150 about. Try this. When you car is cold disconnect the battery for 5 mins. Then reconnect it and start your car, let it run for 5 mins after you start it. It sounds like your car need to relearn the idle curve. Do NOT have any accessories on. No radio, heat, A\C, lights.

Don't worry, it's a common problem. You probably just did some work right?
