First adjust your idle stop screw until your iac steps come down. I recommend taking the screw out and putting it back in from the top. Then reset your throttle position sensor as shown here https://ls1tech.com/forums/pcm-diagnostics-tuning/177230-stop-drilling-those-tbs-fix-stalling-without-computer-tuning.html. If you still have problems with cold starts try changing the ve tables as shown herehttp://www.ls1tuning.com/iboard/index.php?showtopic=9.

I did 2 degrees on all rpms 1200 and below. It smoothed well into my table too. I saw other people who did the same thing.
