Only the Si Was FI. So his is. But i dont know anthing bout that system. All the IACV's look the Same tho. So Someone just post a pic of the IAVC. Then He can just search around for one.

Also Maybe you Injectors are Getting stuck.
Also Check youre FPR.

in addition to cleaning the IACV aka EACV (do a search for cleaning how-to), try flipping open the butterfly valve on the TB and cleaning the TB bore real good too. I've found the IACV csn't provide enough idle control if a large amt of air is leaking past the flap seating surface (all gunked up). Causes surging idle.
