Default Weird Idle

after installing my throttle body ( it was off for cleaning ) I noticed that the car now idles at 1100-1200 rpms, it does'nt loop. and in the morning in cold weather after I start it up it'll idle at that RPM and not go into it's warmup sequence untill after about a min. or so.... and when the motor comes off of a rev it drop slightly below 800rpm then back up to the 1100-1200 area. I checked all my vacum lines and there fine. aslo, I recently installed a Skunk2 manifold but I think it was idleing normal after that.
and just as a side question, my PCV valved buzes super loud, it can be heard inside the car while sitting at a light. don't thing theres anything wrong with just thought it was strange.

I would check and make sure all the nuts and bolts (Skunk2 and your throttle body) are on tight.
