Default impreza sti - is it broken?

Hi i have a v4 sti impreza , was stolen but has been recovered ( with damage on the door) since i have had it back ( 2 months ago) its been started a few times and now i am looking at fixing the physical damage and putting it back on the road ( needs a door and some bogging) but since i have had it back , its only beein started for ten minutes or so ( as its soooo loud) but at the moment it idles at 2.5K and it has not dropped down to normal , should i be worried or is this normal

It has a Simtek ecu on it , it does not smioke at all from the exhaust and there are no leaks or anythings , should i put it down to the freezing weather in manchester?

If the anti lag switch is turned on ( for a moment ofcourse) the revs come own but its pops and bangs alot.

Should i be worried?

i dont know if it is that mate , since iv had it mapped by a decent mapper from preston its always been slightly out like 800-1000 but it was just nnoyance still liveable and fast im just wondering if somethings change or is wrong as its not dropped below 2.5k yet!

how long should it take for it to settle down when warme up?
