double check all vacuum hoses - listen for the HISS while gently flexing each hose. MAP sensor or EACV problem possibly

Might try re-setting the idle, by pulling the EACV/IAC connector. It will throw a code tho, just re-set the ECU after your finished.

Make sure there is no trapped air in the cooling system. It will cause the ECT sensor to send bogus signals to the ECU.

Just some thoughts...

Are you sure its not the heating or cooling system kicking in, or turning you wheel(revs for the power steering) or anything like that.
