    RPMs with bumper off

    I just installed the AWE SMIC, and went to start the car, it seems to be idling kinda high, is this normal (around 1000/1200rpms)?

    The front bumper is off, if that makes a difference. I'm just wondering if the higher rpms are due to the increased air flow.

    Its probably just idling to warm it up if you hadnt started the car in a while... How long did you let it run for? Having your bumper off wouldnt make the car idle different.
