Do you have a bigger tb and plenum? They can cause you to idle rough if your throttle hasn't been adjusted.

Take a look at your MAF again. Clean it thoroughly, including the wire connections.

Could it possibly be a vacuum leak?

Time for new plugs and wires and see how it runs, whenever my car would act up in that manner if it wasn't the IAC and everything else looked good with no codes a plug change always cleared it up.
