Stock idle points are 800rpm M6 and 550 Drive/650 Park for a A4. These are warm temps.

BTW: if your reading your idle with the tach its gonna be 200 high

so 1000 on your tach is 800 on atap <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

my stock idle was 650 in my A4, now its 875 with cam <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
