High idle?
My Formula idles arounds 1050rpm. Why would it idle so high? It did it stock and it now does it with headers, exhaust, etc. as well. I haven't found any vacuum leaks or anything. Any ideas?

Is this with the engine cold or warm?

Both. When cold it is at about 1300rpm and when it warms up it settles to just over a grand.

check the pcv hose that connects to the intake. it rots on the bottom side of it where you can't see it. the short hose between the intake and pcv valve.
other than that, was the car tuned? maybe the tuner set the idle tables that high for some reason.
next thought is the previous owner turned the idle set screw on the TB.Cold Air Intake, Muffler Delete, Vinci High Performance Dual Valve Springs, Hardened Pushrods, Yella Terra 1.85 Rockers, Some Hydropdipped Stuff, Strut Tower Brace, Some SS Badges, boost/vacuum gauge, fuel pressure gauge, some checkered stripes, drilled/slotted rotors, ZL1addons Stealth wickerbill, Ruxifey LED side markers

I'll check the PCV hose. I would highly doubt the car has ever been tuned. It was BONE stock when i bought it.
