Tune noob with OFT question

I have done plenty of reading through a ton of the very helpful threads on this forum but i still have a few questions so hopefully they are not obvious and I missed the answer.

About 2 weeks ago I flashed my ecu with the most recent (i'll get the version number later, at work right now ) OFT stage 1, 93 octane tune and have 2 questions.

I have had no obvious problems but I did notice that the car now seems to idle in the 630-710 range as opposed to the 750 that it was on the stock tune. Should this be a cause for concern as I thought I read that the OTS maps were supposed to have a smoother idle and this just might be part of that? I have been running Shell 93 since day one on the car and am currently at ~1200 miles.

Also, are there any community members who wouldn't mind taking a look at my logs when I get them posted to see if everything is OK? I'm not looking to get any edits as i'm happy with the OTS map I just want to make sure I'm not gonna be one of the first to destroy the engine before going FI lol



edit: missed the stickied thread where I can post my logs/ask about the idle. feel free to close
