I had mine set at 825 after my 231/237 install........until I almost rearended a car at the Woodward Dream Cruise due to lack of brakes

I'm back up in the low 900's now.

**** my f-14 232/234 cam untuned mind you idles at 625-650 with the tb opened a crack... doesn't cut off or surge.. its really set at about 700 where it stays for about 5 seconds until the computer knocks it down. at 700ish it lopes so phuckin hard.. nasty.... never cuts off on stock tune with aftermarket converter ect.. i removed my a/c and have no underdrive pulley or anything so thats where im going to have my dyno guy set it at 700.. im sure witht he tune and all, it will still never cut off for sure then..

then again futral is known for there streetability.

114 lsa.. if it was a 112 i would set it at 750ish to 800 im sure.

i idle at 900 w/ no a/c..
a/c on its 950 i think...my car seems to not like the a/c on, if i try to start my car with the a/c on itll go up and down for a second then find idle...i've also noticed that when im driving around with the a/c on for along time the rpms will stay around 2000 even if i have the car in nuetral untill i come to a stop and then itll start to come back down...anyone else have that happen? i didnt know if it was normal or not, but i was gonna talk to allen about to see what he could do...i might have to send my pcm back to him to see if he can fix it...but if you guys have this issue too then ill leave it be...

My 6 speed the RAF numbers are in the 14's but it also uses 2.12-2.3 lbs of air per minute. My buddies Auto uses less air and his RAF is in the 11s. Uses ~1.7 lbs of air.
