1500 is kinda high but it's not crazy or anything. BTW, I think the exhaust is an HKS Carbon-Ti.

To the OP, have you adjusted your throttle body cable recently?

I wanted to have minimal slack on my cable so i tightened it so there was almost zero slack. Consequently, it caused the car to idle at about 1500rpm once fully warmed up (about 500rpm higher than the usual 1000rpm it used to idle at).

So i loosened the cable slack a bit to the recommended 1/4 inch deflection and the idle has now returned back to normal.

Not sure if this is relevant to your situation but it may be worth checking out.

Make sure the butterfly is closing completely.

2-2.5k cold and it will drop down to a consistent 850-1000ish rpms with an AEM EMS.


Ditch the TB, it won't gain anything anyway (except headache)

They are hard to adjust for idle, especially if they do not have the two IAC ports inside where the OEM existed. I got my BDL to idle ok but it was never as good as stock. Spoon ftw haha. The response is nice IMO
