If you are doing fuel only, let the stock computer take care of it. Else, figure out what kind of valve it is (PWM variable idle, stepper motor variable idle, on/off, or some BMW crazy valve) and we can go from there.

it's a 3 wire PWM IAC valve. works really, well, but you need to construct circuit to drive ir correcntly. once you have that you can very precisely control idle air across wery wide range :)
