did you check you Distributor cap? take it off and look for corrosion on the contacts of evidence of moisture... hell while it's off i would just replace it, they are only like $30 for the cap and rotor

check and make sure your Hi idle is hooked up, ans you TPS sensor is hooked up right. I had one of thos switched up when we did a GSR build on my lil bros EF, cant remember what one but it made it do the same thing

If you don't know where this is its is next to your fuse box on Drivers Side(USDM.)

New ones from Honda are 75 bucks or so with tax. You can buy them at a Junkyard as well, the hard thing is finding them, sometimes they don't work as well.
