First step in a proper diagnosis: Install original parts.

If problem disappears, you know his "short ram" is causing the problem. If
the problem recurs, then you know it's not.

The OP also has provided very little other information. What would help
here is:
1) Does he have EGR?
2) How does the car start? OK? Lots of cranking needed?
3) How's his gas mileage?
4) How is the car off-idle? Any hesitation?
5) When does the low idle start happening? Cold? Warming up? Full warm?
6) Does it happen in the wet and dry, or just in the wet?
7) Does the temperature gauge go up all the way to the middle within 5 or 6
minutes of driving?
8) How new are the ignition wires, cap and rotor? Are they aftermarket too?
