Check your plugs and wires.

it sounds like a vaccuum leak to me. Or maybe even check the battery terminals they might be corroded. I had that problem and felt pretty stupid when thats all it was.

Wow, there's too much partial info in your post to really help.
It could be plugs and wires, it could be a boost leak (this is a DSM issue almost 90% of the time if not more), it could be a bad ISC, etc.  You can replace all of that if you like, but I'd rather ask you for your mods. 
Do you have your BOV recirculated or is it vented, if it is vented, put the recirc tube back on and let us know how it worked out for you.  This just sounds like a case of a vented bov.

My car was acting similar, sometimes it would idle fine and other times it would idle real low an die. Anyway it ending up being a O2 sensor, after so long the sensor gets covered carbon and wont read correctly then the ecm cant tell your air/fuel ratio and defaults to a preset air/fuel mixture.
