What is usually at fault when your car is idling(hot or cold) and whenever you give it gas to rev, it stalls?

like after the rpms come back down or do they not even go up and it just stalls when you press the gas?
I can start the car up and it will be idling for however long, and if I rev it, it will go up, then when it falls it stalls right out.

The computer is not properly opening the IAC because it is confused from your modifications. You can solve it by simple turning the throttle plate stop screw on the passenger side of the TB one full round. This will manually hold open the throttle plate and prevent the engine from stalling when you quickly let off the gas. Your idle speed will increase but you can dial that back down by using the set screw under the gray plug. I would set the idle around 900.
A slight twist on Shaun's idea is to just run the bleed screw out a little. As you do, the idle will start to return to idle slower, which should act as a buffer to keep the revs from dropping so fast.
Either way should work IMHO - we dont know your existing settings or how the car performs otherwise.
Good luck.

Like said above, your pcm is a bit confused by all that extra airflow.
Play around with what mechanical adjustments you have at your disposal for the best results you can obtain.
If you do a pcm reset after each change, it will help your pcm adjust to your new changes.
Be sure to wait a day or two for the pcm to settle down to your adjustments.
