I would think mechanically changing the motor would be the idea solution,
as then there aren't any electronics to update, change, modify, or play
with.  My understanding of IAC motors is they just push the throttle
assembly on the air-intake a bit to ensure the vehicle doesn't stall when
cold, decelerating, etc.  If so, its just a linkage, right?
