Default tuning tips for TR224 cam

have HPTuners and have been reading alot the last couple days, I have the basics down and have a pretty good grasp on what to do, I just need to know how to do it :

1) what do I do to smooth out idle ?

2) how do I determine where LTFT need to adjusted, histogram ?

I will be gettin the wideband interface next week sometime. I wanna lean idle out to stoi and keep the AFR to about 12.8 at WOT, just need to know how to accomplish this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanx

To smooth out the idle, increase idle speed to 950 rpm and add 4 degrees of spark advance. You will be amazed at how well this cam will idle. Lean out the idle mixture by scaling back the VE 15%.

"Go to Edit --> Engine --> IDLE -->IDLE AIRFLOW --> IAC Park Position Airflow vs. IAT: Raise all points from -40C and up to 21 "

you say raise to 21 but mine starts out at 35
