How long does it take for your car to go from start up RPM to below 1000 RPM? I know on cold days it'll take longer for the engine to warm up but on most other cars I've driven it doesn't take this long. It was 35 degrees out and it took at least 5 minutes to drop to 1000 RPM and I was wondering if that's normal for this car...

It's a manual transmission with TRD exhaust. I'm probably going to install the TRD intake as well which'll clear up the engine bay and get rid of the sound tube...it makes me feel like I'm listening to more a "resonating" sound as opposed to the actual engine sound.
I have had the car through temperatures in the negatives and it has never taken more than about 2 minutes to drop. Keep in mind that even when the idle drops the car is still not up to operating temperature so take it easy for the first few miles.
