high idle rpm, 900

my track car's Idle rpm is high, usually almost 900.
It used to hold 780~800, but recently 900.

Usually it shows same pattern,
engine start -> 900
or
engine start -> 650 -> 780 -> 900

There is no rpm fluctuating.
After driving, rpm is 890~900.
900 at cold start. always 890~900.
hmmmm

<my mods and parts related to engine>
lithium battery
new alternator
new spark plugs & injectors
new throttle actuators
new O2 sensor x 4ea
new fuel pumps
all air conditioning parts removal

Akra evo / secondary air pump removal / under derive pulley

ECU software is stock with SAP, 1st CAT and speed limit removal.

plz advice me~

Maybe it runs a little higher with less accessory load?

Could be engine adaptations need to readapt since you put in some fresh parts in your air and fuel system.
