It would be best to have some form of idle speed control valve somewhere, but a lot don't, will just be very lumpy idle when cold etc, and have to hold it on throttle manually a lot.
You could use a cossie one or another one in a different position.

i'm using one on my zetec turbo so it runs smoother as the other guys have mentioned but have gone for fiesta turbo one so i can mount it out the way as the cossie iscv gets in the way on my set up.
Good luck
