Run threw all of your vacuum hoses to check and see if there are any disconnected hoses or cracks in them

yep. spray some brake parts cleaner on all the vacuum fittings, intake manifold flanfe, injector O-ring ports. The RPMs will change when the BPC gets sucked in. Also wiggle the MAP sensor line, see if you can get that to seal better. A stuck IAC sensor (rear of the TB) can cause that too.
