Playing with the idle airflow tables within the tune will normally solve this problem.

and if playing with the tables doesn’t solve the problem?

As said before, your "tuner" is an idiot.

With the proper scanner config, the idle can be tuned very very easily.

Where are you located?

Apparently. Never met the dude... Frankly I trust aftermarket tooners about as far as I can throw them, especially a dude who labels himself Dr..

Your " tuner" should start looking for more suitable employment.
Ask if he does drywall.

I've had a cabled truck that required a larger hole drilled, but those things came with holes from the factory. The iac just couldnt open enough to supply enough air at idle. I thought the wired stuff should be able to adjust on the fly...
