My idle problem

ppl,
Any tips are appreciated in advance.
Pulled the S/C off the 1G-GZE on the weekend. As far as i can see everything is rock stock on this motor.
After taking it off, basically to say hello, get aquainted, and change her fluid, i went about putting it back together.
S/C goes in. Throttle body assembly with ISCV goes back in. All seems well.
When i start it, it revs harder (closed throttle) then drops back down to a very lumpy idle (sounds like a drag cam setup or something). It basically sounds tough. Idles at 600rpm and at very even intervals - one sec approx - jumps up to 1000 rpm. The car will not stall, even in drive.
Of course i thought vacuum leak... But i have meticulously checked all the hoses, and all couple of hundred of them are securely back in place. I suspected ISCV may be stuck closed or just plain rooted, so i pulled it off while engine was running hoping to see little change, but engine died immediately.
The only electrical that was touched (disconnected & reconnected) was TPS, ISCV, S/C relay, and what appears to be a solenoid that controls 3 vaccum lines on the S/C - dunno what this is exactly.
I am a little stumped, but since everything is back the way it was, no new parts, no modifications, i hope that this is something simple that all you clevers chaps can make me look stupid for not working it out.
It is worth noting that when i test drove it last nite, S/C makes better boost. Everything drives fine - car goes well - it just idles like a top fueller.
