Default What does your blazer IDLE at?

Just curious, I don't have a problem with mine idling but I was curious to see what your guys blazers idle at? When I first bought it i didn't pay attention but when I installed the flowmaster 40 muffler and for the first start of the day (very first start) it does 1000rpm. Now with my FIPK by k&n it does 1100rpm <--(so freaking loud with that baby). And than calms down to about 700-900rpm. I'm just curious and wanted to start a new thread (i hope its new). Thanks!

So mine also does 500rpm (i didnt mention) when it has been driven around for 3 or 4 times.

However, does anyone, whos blazer idles at 500, does it seem like it is on (like running) when it is at 500? I was at a stop light one day with my sister and it was doing 400-500 and I looked at her (the music was way down too) and said "is my truck on?" I had to check the key, open the door, and put it in reverse/drive just to make sure because it was soooooooo quiet!
