Default Do I have to drill the throttle blade with this cam?

I'm going to have my TR 220/220 .561/.561 114 LSA cam installed next week, and I was wondering if my car would have any surging or stalling problems, if I don't drill the throttle blade, to raise the idle speed?

The reason I don't want to raise the idle speed at all, is because I would like my car to atleast have a little bit of a lope at idle.

By the way, according to the cam pro plus sheet that Thunderracing sent me, the final specs for my cam are 220.7/220.4 .553/.553 113.6 LSA. With those specs, do you guy's think that my car will have even a little bit of a lope running through my SLP LT headers, HF cats, and SLP LOUDmouth exhaust? Even at the stock 800 RPM idle?

drilling comes from the lsa 112 cams that
overlap real bad.

Well just as an example I have a 226/236 .525/.525 110lsa cam in my car and I did not need to drill mine at all. It holds idle very very well.
