How to adjust idle speed?

Does anyone know how to do this? I just cleaned my TB and installed my intake today and now the revs jump to 2000rpms when I start the car and it idles around 800 rpms (used to jump to about 1500 rpms and then idle at 600 rpms). I read the FAQ and was unable to find anything on this topic.

Thanks

try adjusting the idle speed right by the throttle body. loosen the bolt and turn the screw right for higher and left for lower. have your defrost on while doing this.

You didn't read the whole FAQ then. Idle cold is 1500rmp. Idle hot 750rpm.
