Strange idle problem
 
When the car is idling it is at 1100. But if I pen the hood and leave it open a few hours it idles at normal rpm. Than while driving I'll push the clutch in and the rpm's will rise. I have replaced the IAC valve. It has a Diablo sport tune. The car does have 100,000 miles on it. IT also running extremely rich

Is the car modded at all and is it tossing codes for running rich? It sounds like you have a few issues that need to be taken care of.

if it's rich it's not tuned it's fucked up. Get it to a tuner, make him fix the tune. Don't try to fix the tune yourself. The idle issue is also in the tune. Probably an IAC duty cycle setting or something.

don't know if you fixed it yet but also try cleaning and checking your MAF inside is a little wire just be carefull not to damage it spray it cleaner and use q-tip to wipe it, again very soft so as not to damage it
