You have to reprogram with a handheld programmer.

You can also go the cheapy way and drill as small hole in the throttle body valve so more air gets in at idle, effectively raising it.

Where do you live and what year is your car? Reason I ask is because I have HP Tuners with unlimited credits for 2002 Corvettes. PS, I wouldn't drill a hole.

Haha, I did say it was the cheapy way. Probably not the best!

I just read somewhere you can do that.

I agree. It doesnt always work plus it sucks drilling a hole in your TB, it has alot to do with the size of the cam. My MS3 didnt want to idle right until I got it tuned, but its a 236/242 with a .609 lift.
