ofcourse you should, that way you'll satisfy my curiosity as to if you can feel a difference or not....lol......
i guess one advantage to doing it now is that way you can get your idle set and in the ball park so when you do your other stuff it won't be changing a bunch of stuff at one time, that way if you have any problems you'll know where to back track to fix it.....
