Low idle

Alright i just installed my New BHR ingnition kit. and now looks like i have a low idel, I let the car warm up to the right temps and then i reved the engine to 3-4k on neutral and let the gaz go and the car revs went down to close to 500. was kinda scared it was gonna stall. but then went back up to a teady 1k untill i rev it up and back down again. then it drops to 500 again.

What could be causing this?

Doesn't sound abnormal.

Give it time, if you just installed it. ECU is still learning.
