How did you recover it? Was it benched? And which rom did you flash onto it?

I'm suspecting what razorlab is thinking. I'd just drive it for a bit and let the ECU re-learn idle.

You can also force a re-learn.

Evo X Electronic Throttle Valve (ETV) Relearn Process

1. Start the engine and let it warm up. Use the MUT-III to confirm that the engine coolant temperature
exceeds 85 C (185 F). The A/C switch should be OFF for this procedure.
2. Repeat the following step 3 times:
Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and wait at least 10 seconds.
Restart the engine.
Leave the engine running on the third start.
3. Allow the vehicle to idle for a minimum of 15 minutes.
