I tried to change the idle in my car from the 750 it was set at to 900 rpm to get more charging at idle. Even though I upped the Idle in gear and idle to 900ish RPM it still idles at 750 rpm. Is there another scalar to up the idle?

BTW I am doing this to keep my HIDs from flashing at extended idles in the summer heat.

Do you use cal-edit or BE as your tuning software?The only reason i ask i do not know about cal-edit at all. Also which computer are you running?

I am using Cal Edit.

I read the tune into the laptop, changed the setting then loaded them to the TwEECer. Then changed them higher (1200 RPM) and loaded those into a different tune on the TwEECer. When I ran the car on either of these it still idled at 750.

I then hooked the laptop back up and sure enough both tunes are as I changed them. Am I at the limit of the idle speed control on the TB???

I don't believe you are at the limit of the iac. I wish i could help like i said i use different software. I know with my software and cbaza t4m0 computer there are many different things that can effect idle. Adders subtractors and so on.
