I think you would be find, the worst that could happen is your car would cut off at idle. IMHO. Personally I think the ECU would adjust.

I'm doing the same thing right now. Bumped the idle up 100 and it doesn't want to die on my anymore. The only other problem I'm having is I think the NGK TR6's I put in are wanting to foul out since the car is running rich.

If your running rich, maybe considering a wider gap in the spark plugs, again you would have to log some info, like going to a dyno or using your laptop to copy some data.
