Question about reflash and no idle

So I bought a 04 over winter, have never had a problem with it yet. I've been noticing a lack of power at low rpms; figured no big deal change out the coils, plugs, cables. Well went to the dealership just to see how much they charge since its right down the road. $475 bucks for all of it laughed and walked out the door. Figured since I was there might as well check to see if it has had the reflash on it. Found out it hadn't got it done today then when I got in it wouldn't idle. The car would drive fine once moving, even noticed a lil more power but once I came to a stop the rpms dropped down and the car died. Now I'm thinking it may be part needing new ignition parts, and also the car getting use to the new flash, once I got back to my apt the rpms would drop to about 500ish but pick up right before it would stall. Just wondering if anyone has heard of anything like this after the flash.
