Check the pipe leading from the ISCV to the inlet manifold. It could simply be it is not on properly and is causing more air to be let in that the ISCV allows on idle, hence high idle.

The pipe connecting the ISCV and the airbox should be irrelevant as air would still have to pass through the ISCV, and thus be controlled input.

Either that or the ISCV is sticking open.

You could clean the flywheel sensor as well, I did mine the other day and it sorted a stalling issue. I had a load of shit buildup and tiny metal flakes due to drilling out my core plug which probably upset it.
