Motor Racing to 3000RPM at idle!?!

My dad has a 93festiva L 5sp manual (used to be an auto but we swapped it ((might be relevant?))
Since we swapped in the motor all it does is race/smoke and there very is little braking power.
We switched out the egr valve, and some relays which didn't change anything.
Any suggestions as to what the issue might be? Maybe a computer issue? Intake manifold gasket seal bad? Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks~
