HELP!?!?!?

I've noticed this for the last little while and it seems like it's happening a bit more frequently. ... It all began almost immediately after I put in the SRI ... here's my problem..

It doesn't happen everytime but it happens enough for me to notice... As i'm driving I will come to a stop, as the car is idling... the RPM sits at about 500... THEN for a split second it'll dip to 100 and then shoot back up to 1000 , but the car feels as though it's a bout to stall/shut off. *All the while I have my foot on the brake waiting for the traffic to advance...

Not sure if this is related to the EGR needin' some cleaning or if this is something else I should think about? *any help?
 
Yeah, check everything mentioned above. Also, did you install the MAF sensor in the proper direction (not backwards) ? Good luck.
