I doubt it's going to be fully fixed, at best put back to its' old condition. Honestly I think I'd have to ship the car to Japan to the godhead of Honda to get it fixed

If the problem isn't fixed I highly suggest talking to some Honda techs on a forum. It shouldn't be a difficult fix, I could probably even fix it for you after some tinkering around and searching the interwebz.

Thanks, Fox, I appreciate it. I talked to the mechanic today and he replaced the IAC valve and took my cruise control light and put it into the check engine light socket  He charged me $100 for that. He said the light gave him 3 error codes, one to do with the IAC valve and 2 others I'm not sure of, I was working and didn't have time to write down what he said. I was pissed he charged me so I told him I'm never bringing my car back there again. Seems like the guy who "rebuilt" the engine screwed me, too, how are you not gonna know that the check engine light is out if you're a mechanic AND working on the engine? That's fucked up.
My next course of action is taking it to autozone and having my friend give me the error codes, he says he'll hook me up. Then, I'm going to do as you suggested and post the results on a honda tech site and talk to you (thanks) and my friends who know a little about cars. I want any future parts that I need to be bought by me, online, at a good price and not be overcharged by a mechanic. Then, unfortunately, I'm going to have to go to another repair shop to have them installed.
