Default Care for my Engine w/ Chip ???

Do I need to run A/C all the time? Does it help, and if so why?
Do I need to let the engine run idle for a little bit after driving? I do when it is spirited driving. But what about just normal putting around? I know...hard to do, but I actually have figured out cruise control on the S4.
Also I switched to Synthetic, does this change any answers?

thanx to all those that reply.

Default running the A/C makes the engine work harder. synthetic is good. let it idle for 30 sec at min
