If you are running dual throttle bodies...where can you put a "fifth" injector for cold start enrichment or is there a setting in the software I'm missing? My 2.2 runs like crap until 210F.....which is about 5 miles at cruising speed.

Got ITBs on my 911. No easy way to add air for idle. I've always thought of using one of the stepper motor screw drive type IACs, removing the IAC part, and mounting it so the screw drive pushed on the throttle linkage. Closed loop idle control but its ALOT of work. One valve and 4 tubes would work, but you'd have to balance them. You could also do a 'fast idle' solenoid to push on the linkage.

Easier to add some ign advance below idle. Say your running 10deg at 1000rpm. Put 15deg in the <=900rpm bins. If the motor rpm sags, the extra advance will help out. Of course you need to play w/ the # to find a safe and effective amount.

I thought on some of the 80s chevy cars, they had a solenoid to kich the throttle open a little for idle, but it might have been for opening a little when the A/C was on. Needless to say there was something around to do that. Had an adjustable plunger so you could set how far it would increase the idle.
