Do all LS1's idle at 800, or is it just me
 
If it's just me, is it because I am running lean? I dynoed this past weekend, and my air/fuel ratio was at 13.5, 13.6 throughout the dyno. I have cat bypass pipes, but no o2 simms. I do not have a ported MAF. Can the O2 simms correct this? Any advice!!??

I believe the stock setup has idle at 750 rpm, but many people say that the tach is off at low rpm and high rpm. My tach is nailed on 750 rpm at idle. I have only hit the rev limiter (6250 rpm) a couple times and I wasn't looking at the tach at the time they happened, but I usually shift when it hits 6000 when racing.

Stock desired idle speed for a M6 car is 800rpm. I can’t remember what it was for my A4 when I had stock tuning. I think it was 550 in drive and 650 in park. Now mine is set at 850 in drive and 950 in park (custom tuning).
