Is this normal Idle RPM of 6 Speed?

http://community.webshots.com/photo/...68155055rGiZhi

Seems a little higher then the auto I had. Is this where everyones 6 speed idle's? No ac/heat was on. Car was warmed up.

Thanks

800-900rpm when it's warm. It works itself down from 1.5k whenn i first start it.

Thats right where mine rides and I have 750miles on mine. The idle RPM will drop alittle when you put some miles on it.
