I run mine at 900 rpms. I could run it at 800 without too much trouble, but I don't like idling it that low because it increases the likelyhood of stalling out if I let out the clutch too fast. It would lope nicely though. As it is, you would never know I have a hotcam in it.

yeah mine sounds good it idle way too rich before. its nice and stable now. on start up when you take off it may take a min for the car to run before the rpms wont drop when slowing. after that min though u can do whatever u want and she wont stall.

I've got mine at 900 right now. It idles fine at 800 but it pulls itself in first better with it set at 900. Its amazing how much smoother the idle is with a tune. Its almost too smooth now!

I got my HotCam idling at 925 like others with my M6. I don't know how some of you idling so low with the hotcam. Mine used to be at 800 and it would die out every now and then.

thats what i watned to know, how low i could go, i was thinking about 700-750 i love the lope lol.
y2k ss thats strange maybe u had some problems with some idle airflow values for it not to idle right, i have the f13 and its a 230/232 598/587 112+4 and i can get it to idle 800 no problems at all.
