how long do you guys usually let a cold engine run before engaging the transmission?

I let it run until the RPM's start to drop. It's about 20-30 seconds.

I started it the other day and it had what felt like a rough idle upon starting - it stopped doing that after about 10 seconds =/

I've got a G3 intake on it, but not other mods. Maybe the G3 is in too tight or something crazy like that (no way should it be a rough idle - temps have been fine, etc)
