Make sure you have no vacuum leaks, and check TPS sensor.

did it start randomly? or did u just swap it? maybe the tach is off... maybe you need to adjust the throttle cable.. more likely the answer above..

Fast idle thermo valve or fitv is your problem I bet. It needs to be taken off cleaned, inspected, then readjusted. I had the same problem with my b16 I did this and now my idle is at 700-800.

It's easy to do but if you need help shared_pm me

the screw on the top of the throttle body is not the idle adjustment.

Plug Off All Vacuum Lines That Are Not Needed. Use A Pice Of Wire On The Plug By The Ecu That Lets You See The Codes The Motor Is Throwing. Then Adjust The Screw On The Throttle Body. If It Still Idles High You May Want To See What Rshared_pm You Ecu Is Chipped For, Or The Iacv Or Fiv Or Tps... Maybe Im Wrong And Im A Butterfly Jumping On A Keyboard. But Who Knows?@?@?!!?!?@?@?@
