Go to hptuners.com/forum and do some reading in the getting started threads. Don't just come on here and ask to be spoon fed. There are folks on here that can help with specific questions, but we also get paid for tuning cars. I don't mind helping people that are trying to learn, but a comment like how do I post a tune shows that you haven't put in any effort yet.

That's a big overlap-y cam and has probably really bent
your real motor VE, the VE table has probably not been
trued up and the model for motor torque vs added air
is also way off. This latter comes into play via the A/C
drag torque -> "add air to compensate" mechanism.
The A/C drag torque is unchanged but the motor
response to it, has. You are evidently adding more
than it needs and more than the closed loop idle RPM
control can pull back out (though, do you give it the
time it might need, to do so? Let it sit, and see?).

This can also be aggravated by manifold air (vacuum)
leaks, skewing the entire controlled-air-mass vs IAC
relation beyond the control range when adder-air is
pushed (maybe just barely in control when A/C off).
Look to your IAC counts, if they are bottomed out
then look for a gross air leak. If hovering in the control
range (100-200-ish) then this idle RPM pedestal is
wilful (just jacked).

Quit harsh. He did not ask how to read the PCM, he asked how to post it. Maybe he has never attached a file in this forum and just needed to know, click the paper clip icon. If you are a shop or just a tuner that gets paid then I would think you would have an understanding of good customer service and marketing strategies to help in company growth.
