Idle is electronically controlled. You can't wind it down.

Have a look at this site New Tiburon Forum : Hyundai Tiburon Forums and do a search for vacuum leak. There are a number of ways to do it.

One way is with a can of aerostart (contact cleaner or any other atomised metho like cleaner) and spray it around the areas a little bit at a time, listening for a change in idle rpm - most likely going up.

First up, check all your connections and clamps. Also ensure all manifold bolts are tight.
