Increased Engine Idle
As I get closer to finalizing my MM tune, I was considering requesting an increase in idle speed. My idle occasionally shudders like most RX-8s, and I also have the AP Pulley, which reduces voltage at idle.
Will an increased idle smooth things out further, and if so, how much of an increase is ideal? I've read that beyond 900 can adversely effect the cat, but at the same time, how much does it need to be increased to make a difference? MM sets it to 830 by default, I was looking at between 850-900. Are there any side effects; increased fuel consumption, etc.?
