Is it only me having this problem?

I have a stock MCS and i am experiencing some problems.

1) unstable idle (happen every once a while, when i stop at a light or make a complete stop at stop sign. I can feel the engine shaking a bit when the idling is jumping up and down)

2) The car tends to surge a little. e.g. when you let ff gas and re-tab the gas pedal in a quick mannor.

3) A little surge when the car is doing a engine brake in normal dring ( e.g. let the car slow down by letting off gas and no braking is apply, feel most in 1st gear)

sorry for the long questions.
any input will be appriciated.
