Do you have any sort of tune on it? There's a possibility the idle rpm was bumped up in the tune. What is your TPS sensor reading (# voltage or # %)? What are your LTFT %'s at?

If you don't have a OBD2 scanner of any sort, you're **** outta luck.

Does it have bigger injectors or anything? If not then there's an air leak or your throttle cable is hung up, etc. Installing a turbo kit correctly is not going to make it idle higher.

Do you plan on tuning this yourself?

Like if the throttle cable is not resting back on to the throttle stop at idle. What are your LTFT's at idle?
