i went with a 75mm bbk tb and plenum.. but now my problem is that before my car use to idle at around 500 or so some say it was low but it ran great. but now its ideling at around 800 and depends if its in d or p or n it idels from 800 to like 1k.

Give it a couple hundred miles or so to adjust. Mine took about a week of driving before it fixed itself. If it doesn't correct itself, then possibly the throttle position sensor may need to be adjusted. There isn't much to adjust, but sometimes you can loosen the screws a little and turn it a very small amount left or right.

you could try re-setting the battery so the pcm can re-learn with the tb.
