Default New TB installed, idle too high, please help!

I am new at this so please forgive me if this is a dumb question: I just installed an MTI Throttle Body (polished billet throttle body) and my car is now idleing too high. Would anyone have any suggestions as to why? I would appreciate any and all help I could get with this... Thank you very much!

Check the throttle cable, idle screw, anything that could be restricting the valve to close.
