Factory idle speed for a B18B is 750 +/- 50 RPM... as in 700-800 RPM. If you are around 1000 RPM, and sometimes under decel, slightly lower... you should be fine. Remember that you have this engine in a Civic chassis and not in an Integra chassis, so the fuel system is different and the stock ECU will not function optimally. Tuning can improve the engine operation.
