Clean your IAC valve, & mapwhack.
There's some DIY's floating around, search.

you will know when your car will start having a rough idle. Think of it this way, it's stalling out like when u first started learning to drive a manual tranny.

Also it doesnt really hurt to do the map whack, relearn the idle and clean out the IAC. It will help with induction.
