Default Smooth idle fuel setting on afc?

What should my fuel be set at for idle on the safc? Ive seen some people that had -19 with 450cc and some that had -40 with 450cc. Does anyone know what is a good base idle fuel setting?

My idle sucks, after decellerating my car drops to about 200 rpms and then raises back up. It is better now that it is cold for some reason, but when it's hot it will just stall.

set both high and low fuel maps to -29/-29 @ 1000 rpms and change your ne points to 1500/2500/3500/4500/5500/6500/7500/8500....this will make for a good idle and smoother overall driveability...

Anything under -29 (-30,-31,-32 etc) makes my car shake, I have it at -28 right now and notice a little puff of smoke when I first go to move the car, I'd rather be rich at idle then dealing with hearing stuff rattle.

i have mine set at -31 at 1000 but i have the automatic DSM 390cc injectors. my idle hangs fairly smoove at around 600. it dies at traffic lights sometimes though. i had a great idle at -28, unfortunately, since i run with an open downpipe, the ultra-rich smoke and stink was a little too much for me.
