Default Strange Idling

I have a 95 Civic Ex with a D16Z6 and it is turbo with a T25 DSM turbo at 8 psi. It is idling strange. It idles at 1500 and pulses slightly, in first and second gear, if i don't keep it at high RPMs it jerks back and forth pretty hard. I have searched all over this sight trying to figure this out. I have replaced the MAP and TPS sensors, cleaned the throttle body, and it was still running strange. I checked the ECU codes and it is throwing a 14 which is an IACV code, so i pulled that off my 97 civic, which i was building (hence my user name) but it got hit...so i took of the IACV and put it on and the 95 and it is still throwing the code. The weird part is, that it stops pulsing and stays at a steady 1500 when the radiator fan kicks on. I've tried everything i can think of. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Might sound silly, but when you replaced the tps, did you set it to the correct voltage?

I believe it should read .5 closed, and 4.5 while throttle is completely open. The meters run pretty cheap at autozone (i picked one up for $15).

You check the wire that runs in the middle to the tps of the three that are there. Hope it fixes your issue man.
