Raising Idle = Problem Solved?
Will raising the idle to around 800-900RPM, solve my issue of a more stable idle with the ProCharger and large injectors? Sometimes she get's a little agitated and the A/F will go from around 13.8 - 15.8 (extreme days, most the time just 14.2 - 15.2ish) and with it the RPM kind of dips and rises. I noticed if I rev it to about 1000RPM and hold it this issue goes away.
Also, if this does work, what's the best way to go about doing it? Through the dealer/Consult and ECU, or through the UTEC somehow?

Yes, a 1000 rpm idle does wonders. I have found that the stock ECU will bring it down slightly from whatever the setpoint is. Osiris is the best thing there is for this kind of customization. If you have a pre-04.5, you can use Cipher to set idle (up to 850 rpms I think).
JWT's website also has a quick fix to improve idle stability.
Finally, you could try the el cheapo drill a tiny hole in the throttle body.
