Non adjustable is the word, its controlled by the IAC valve in the back and the computer.

I however installed a V8 body on my V6 with a 5 speed and the idle *only* when warm and the AC not on was too high, about 1100 RPM, the IAC valve was closed, and the computer tripped the code for it thinking it was a vacum leak. So I removed the plug that covers the idle set screw and turned it down just a hair........

Ain't had a problem since :-) Not only do I get more power from the TB swap, my mileage is the same, frickin Mopar.

However if this is not your scenario, then don't touch that plug IMHO
