This is why when you modify a car you need to be patient and prepared. Odds are 90% of the time whatever mod you had planned will not go the way you envisioned. You need to be prepared to have to fix and replace ANY part related to any aftermarket part you install. Even simple mods like bolt ons can cause a lot of issues. IMO you needed to be a little more patient than two weeks to figure out the issue. But you know you're going to do what you want anyway.
I think you just really wanted and were ready for something new. It could have cost you $2,000 to get this idle issue you fixed and I KNOW you would have a ton more cash left in your pocket. Between trading in that L99 and getting the SS, it had to have cost you at least $20,000. You could have bought a turbo/supercharger, brought it to a real nice shop, had them install that AND fix whatever was messing up your idle and still been on top a little over 10gs.
Hope this SS works out for you, I would definitely drive one. Just think you rushed into something. And you know, you can get upset with "negative" posts but this is a forum so as long as people offer a reasonable amount of respect they can say whatever their opinion is. If you didn't want to hear our take then...you know...
