What you need to do is flash the car. Then follow these steps:

1. Start engine and don't touch the gas. Let it idle for 5-10m so that it can learn and settle into a stable idle.
2. Shut engine off.
3. Turn car to On, but don't start engine.
4. Depress the gas pedal all the way and fully release. Do this about 10-20 times.
5. Turn off
6. Start car as usual.

The pedal trick helps the ECU learn the full range of pedal travel faster.
