Engine Idles bad after 2030 Camshaft install

I installed the 2030 camshaft...

and now the engine idles real bad even after 200 miles..

apart from teh cam i replaced teh PCV valve...

i need to know 2 things

1. i connected the PCV valve to a point in teh THrottle body and also to a point in the EVAP canister (using vacuum hoses) since my origianl plastic hose broke...is that right way to do it...

2. I get the SES light and when i connect and find error codes i get error 22 = TPS sticky/ BAd TPS

whats wrong with my car now...

does the 2030 crane cam have a very bad lopey idle

it dies if i put it in drive and not reva little or Throttle position has to be adjusted so much that Torque converter is gonna be messed up since engine revs in idle and DRive is 1000+ RPM

has engine Advance got something to do with this

Thanx a lot in advance guys
