It will if it was ported incorrectly. Some guys take off too much material around where the blade rests when the throttle is shut. This allows too much air to get around the blade therefore the IAC goes full shut and yet still too much air gets in therefore a high idle results that you can't fix without epoxying the blade hole shut or getting another TB.

you will be fine... you may get a high idle for your pcm to recalibrate if there was a problem with the port job or the tps was altered
I ported one for my T/A (the first time I ever ported a TB) and didn't realize I had gone all the way back to where the blade rests. Needless to say I threw that TB in the trashcan!

ouch, you should have recycled,,,, or used the piece to see how far you could go. 
Some cars will experience an idle adjustment, does not mean the port is incorrect as stated above, it CAN, but does not always mean that it will happen for that reason. I have seen complete stockers with gaps, sticky points, and other various issues, ect...that going to a PnP'ed unit can cause a re-learning curve to be made.
