Default b16 with s2000 throttle body idle problem

i have a b16 with a type r IM and s2000 throttle body. but the idle is at like 400rpm and there is no screw to adjust the idle. i had a b16 TB and it worked good for idle but this new one doesnt, anyone know why? i dont want to go bact to my b16 TB so any help will be nice
thanks

the b16 IM is better. you get a lil bump from a type r IM at 7k and up. a whole 1200rpm isn't worth it.

honestly, just go back to the b16 TB, because the s2000 one is ~2mm larger.

is your car obd2 or 1? if obd1, you can adjust the idle through your ecu and be done, if obd2 i think your are SOL without a tune, which would mean going obd1 anyhow.
