Default Is there a way to adjust the idle? (2.7)

In drive mine idles at about 550 and in park it idles at about 700. The 150rpm difference really smooths out the engine and make things like the A/C compressor engaging much less noticeable. I'd like to bump my in gear idle up a bit - is this something the dealer has control over?

it 'seems' smoother because the engine isn't under any drivetrain load in neutral/park. You feel it more when ac engages in drive because the engine is loaded up with the brakes holding the drivetrain back, and every change to the engine's load will be felt through the drivetrain.

I can adjust the idle with my tuner.
