It won't hurt the car to pinch the IAC off, but it won't idle on cold days till it warms up. It will keep stalling for about 5 minutes. I drove mine this way for about a year. You just have to keep your foot on the gas at idle for about 5 minutes on cold days. I got very good at using my right foot for the brake and gas pedals at the same time.

Check to make sure its temp sensor wire is connected. If its off the control unit will think the engine is really cold and set the idle high. The wire harnes does degrade on the turbos. Mine was really bad, including the IAC wires. The grey plug on the exaust side of the firewall is pretty much all wires for the IAC, and my wires disintigrated right around that connector (heat from the turbo)
