ha, I didn't think there were any cars simpler than a saturn sl (well, at least any that have obd2 at least).

Remember that the idle rpm will be held higher if vehicle speed is up. Mine idles around 1100rpm until just before coming to a stop then finally drops to around 7-800rpm. I would like to have it drop to its lowest rpm anytime clutch is in but that would likely involve re-programing an ecu. Anyone ever beat this high idle at higher vehicle speed?
