So lately my car has been idling terribly after driving more than 10 minutes (I'm assuming the reason is because its getting hot). What it likes to do is dip very low and bounce from say 300-900 rpm. It likes to dip so low that it will die at stop lights if i'm not keeping it revved.
What should I check first?

Are you all stock on yours? Are you seeing elevated temps on the temp gauge, any bubbling, hissing noises or dumping coolant on the ground? Are your fans coming on or not? Lots of basic things to check I would say before writing her obit...

nope, not all stock. Aftermarket exhaust/radiator/ intake/ uim elbow. The stock temp gauge is pretty terrible and unreliable, but i'm not seeing any crazy temps. (my radiator fans are coming on) no coolant dump.

I also looked at my vacuum box, didn't notice any lines popped off.

Could be numerous different things. I would start by seeing if it is throwing any codes.
