What if your IAC counts are around 110 warmed up but your idle is halfway decent? should I keep working to get it down? right now I haven't drilled or used the setscrew, is it worthwhile to play with that just to try to get a number down?

110 is too high, even with the AC on. You should shoot for 30-50 IAC counts with AC off at fully warm idle. If you can crack the throttle with the set screw, that would be the best way, but in my case, I cracked the throttle too far and got the voltage threshold. As a result, I got my IAC counts by doing both the throttle cracking and drilling the TB blade.

i think the threshold is something like 0.71 v or so. but i may be wrong. the other problem you have to worry about with that voltage is the tps not staying reset. when i had the epoxy in my tb and it was restricting airflow, when i had to crack open the tb it woudl reset after a week and at idle it was 1-2%
