Or I might be talking out of my arse.
but if it's the fuel screw you've turned down and it's dropped your idle, look for the cable that goes from the wax stat to the pump, there should be 2 screws behind the pump where the cable goes to.
And I think the passenger side screw is the hot idle.
I'm not sure , 800 just feels and sounds a bit low , even when it's low.
I have tried giving the passenger side of the two screws some adjustment but doesn't really do much lol
there's a lock nut and threaded grub to tighten the wax stat cable, might not be tight enough mate . .
Ahh right cheers

You can quickly lose a lot of power to heat soak....
Well I can definitely feel that power loss , it doesn't pull anywhere near as well after it's been given some hammer.
I think it's fair to say it must be getting hot in there anyway after seeing that the retainer for holding my nitrous injector onto the standard boost pipe from turbo outlet to cooler inlet had melted....
