Default idle too low

hello
I have changed the cam for a comp cam #54-000-11 duration 273 int 273 exh, a set of GTP stg2 heads, Z06 intake, Granatelli MAFS, Halltech carbon air intake, Fidenza flywheel, centerforce clutch, slp long tubes headers no cats, borla XR1, no computer mods...the car runs very good except the idle...too low of 200 rpm...have you maybe an idea how could I solve the problem?
Thanks in advance
Stan

take it easy skip granatell the place ya got it . the throtle body does it have an adjuster it may be leaded over for anti tamper. use a scan tool check tps. position voltage .05 volt. ya may be able to raise screw and not go out of spec. if ya try the adjustment do it engine off key off 1/4 turn at a time restart to check then do idle learn hope this helps
