Angry 1999 Honda Civic EX 5speed-Running rough w/ Check engine light on

I had my mechanic friend scan the check engine. He said it was the idle control valve that was the issue. I changed it out and it ran well for about 1,000 miles and then it popped back on. I exchanged the part and reset the light. A week later it is back on. I clean out the throttle body as well as switch it back to the stock intake. Has anyone else had a similar issue and how did you resolve it?

When the light is on it runs super rough at low RPM or when I am shifting it. I think I lost a filling it bucks so hard. the RPM are super high and they don't drop below 1,400 or so.

Thanks for any imput you folks have.

What's the code that's causing the light?
