Default High rev at park to drive shift

When I transition from park or neutral to drive my car revs to about 1500 rpms and it causes it to lunge into gear and jolt the entire car. Then when I go from drive to park it revs to nearly 2000 rpms. It does it to a certain extent going from park to reverse, but its not as bad. I'm using HP Tuners and I have adjusted everything I know to adjust and it is still doing it. There has got to be something I'm missing. Has anybody had this problem and/or know how to fix it? Thanks in advance.

Check the Airflow step up patterns and if there's any on the park to drive transition, zero it out. Might wanna reduce your final drive airflow tables by 2 tenths or so too. If that doesn't help then go to your idle table and make the warm idle for P/N, the same as Drive.

Those must be parameters from efi live or somethin. I've never seen those in my HP tuners. If it is HP tuners stuff, where do I find those?

Yeah it's HPT. I need your file to browse but it should be under engine>airflow>subtab idle. Then you should be able to find your airflow tables.
