I finaly beat the idle surge when the car is just sitting and Idleing. Now it only surges say when i put the clutch in when in 4th or lower, any one know what might cause that, i am thinking a sensor but what one should i try?

Not sure on the cars with original t5's, but on my aod to t5 swapped car, the computer will rev the engine about 500 rpms upon deceleration. Not sure at what MPH, but apparently it uses the speed sensor to do this. Sounds like your issue is different tho.
 
The T5 and AOD speed sensor is the same as far as I know. The difference is in the way the computer interprets the info. If it surges just an instant, for about 500rpms, its probably normal and I wouldn't worry about it too much.
