That is perfectly normal, on a cold start the car will idle high. When it reaches optimal temp. it will lower the rpms to around 750 +/- depended on the car.

Could have something to do with the FITV.

Mine always used to do that, constantly adjusting the FITV will fix it temporarily. If you have one where the internal screw continuously comes loose, a newer one is in store.
