Our car computers are finicky. Adding an intake can confuse it, since the airflow isn't what it thinks it should be. First off, you should run the computer's built-in KOEO and KOER tests. These tests will also tell you if there are any error codes in the computer. Next, I would go through this idle reset procedure to make sure your car idles properly. Once you've done this, report back and let us know what you found.
