Raising Idle?

I have a vortech v-2 supercharger, at low idle (800RPM) it has the annoying rattle. I was wondering if I would be able to raise the idle to 1000RPM so it would go away. I contacted vortech, and a lot of people have complained about it, but there is no fix. How would I raise it if possible, can I do it myself or does Nissan need there computer to change it.

I haven't researched this to much, but what would the adverse reactions to raising the idle be?

Thanks a bunch
Geoff

Yes i have a piggy back ecu, infiniti and nissan told me its impossible unless i had a 1990 so i told them all you need to do is use the consult tool. Then they pretty said we cant do it over and over.

Is there a dealership in the states that has done it, i would like to get a phone number and talk to them. Then i can go into the dealership here and tell them whats what.

I called metro infiniti in california they said it was possible but it would throw a check engine light. I know what they mean cause the drive by wire wouldnt be set to what it needs to see. is this the case?

At most of our alberta meets Randy I think his screen name on my350z is can350z maybe someone can confirm that...but he has consult and was doing 2deg timing advances and I would guess he could do the idle increase if consult can do it. He used to advertise on kijiji as well not sure if still does he was from red deer but I think he lined up a bunch of guys that wanted advances then went to Edmonton or Calgary.

If not Lightspeed innovations in RedDeer is supposed to be getting uprev this summer.
