You may also consider these possibilities:

1) Check the plastic duct from the MAF Sensor to the intake. Examine for cracks, etc. Also, the plastic housing to the T/B.

2) Check all hoses connecting to the plastic bits of the air intake.

3) Check the boots on all the coil packs -- sometimes a worn or cracked boot will cause an idling problem.

I suggest these, because, from the description, the problems could be temp related. As the car warms up, something expands. Also, make sure the T/B et al are securely bolted down. One member had a similar problem which was caused, simply because the manifold was not securely bolted down.

Just some thoughts.
