Since I put on my AFE CAI, my car has been running at 750 rpms, before it always ran at 500, anyone know how I can adjust it?

Make sure all accessories are off, i.e AC, heater, etc. My RPM's are about 250 different when AC is on.

Agreed. Both mt new 550 and my old 545 idled around 750 when the compressor was on but around 500 when off... If you have the AC on, the even though it is cool outside the compressor may be running, accounting for the higher RPM...
