RPMS rev up really high on cold start

So my car was at the boy shop for about 1 week. After i got it back and started it up i noticed that the RPMS went up to 2900RPM and then dropped to 1800 untill the car was warm. It also idled alot higher for the first few minutes of driving. this is in 40 degree weather.

Its been 2 weeks, and everytime i start my car (after its been sitting for atleast 4 hours) the rpms rise to almost 3K for a slplit second. Is this normal?

My mods are: MREV 2 ,MD 5/16th copper iso thermal spacers, z-tube popcharger, and resonated test pipes

Before it went to the shop the rpms would just barely go above 2k at start up.

This may be a long toss, but have you checked the idle positioning sensor?

It really depends on the ambient temp outside. Here in SoCal mine doesn't go over 1300'sh during a cold start.

My coupe is garage kept and it never dip below 50 degrees, cold idle is below 2K RPMs and then it drops to 600 RPMs within 5 minutes. 3K RPMs is way to high, try resetting your ECU or disconnect the negative side of your battery overnight....couldn't hurt!
