What happens to the idle? I never noticed anything on my other car so I guess this is something unique to the rotary? Are we talking "car will randomly stall" idle effect or something like "idle is more erratic"? I suppose nothing bumping up the idle 100 RPM or so wouldn't fix?

not really. from what i understand, Porsche 911s (at least the 964s and 993s) do the same thing when you use a light flywheel. however, i also understand that some people solve the problem by tuning or fooling the computer into thinking the A/C is on all the time. i guess that roughly equates to raising the idle, like you said.
