Do you have a tuning program? Sounds like your idle airflow values are way off. Also, does he have a FAST throttlebody? Some people have had problems with the shaft being loose. Oh yeah, don't type with caps lock on.

Pvt. Pyle, you don't have to shout here, you are not on the Island. (Still whiping spittle of my face) So you are saying that Idle in Park/Neutral is fine but Idle in Gear is where things go bad? If so, is this only during warm up? Or does it happen all thru the temp spectrum? At any rate it sounds like a simple fix, up the amount of air in gear. If you don't have ready access to tuning software try bumping up the set screw on the Throttle Body. Breathe Pvt. Pyle, Beathe.

Ok so the throttle body is not the issue. I'm gonna assume you have a tuning program because you quoted map and ltft values. Log your long and short term idle trims and then add the appropriate amount to the idle airflow tables (for both park and drive). If it surges too much to get the idle trims, add a bunch to the airflow table (maybe 3 g/s) until it idles well enough to get the idle trims. You may have to raise the idle speed to get it to calm down in drive, and if so hopefully he has a stall converter.
