Changing the idle can be done without remapping.

On my car, it took some extra software though, and the guys at the Volvo dealer had to ask how to do it.
I'm afraid it's no longer a case of turning a knob

Euro, iirc you had a problem with idle speed - was it too low?
Vibrations with the AC on @ idle.
Dipping rpm when coming to a stop - the moment you push in the clutch, it'd dip pretty low - below 600 rpm.
I had the idle increased to cure the symptoms, not the cause.

I wouldn't be surprised if these symptoms were gone after the intake path is renewed though.

Would I see similar problems if I went from 800 (760) rpm to 650 rpm, for example?
Cold, I'd expect it to run rough.

666rpm would be nice though
