Default AEM EMS gurus, need help with Idle tunning

i've got a problem, everytime my temp. goes below 140 or so degrees my motor spins at 3k and becomes unbearably loud. this happens at startup and stoplight to stoplight driving and is VERY annoying for myself and everyone around me. i know that this is normal but is there a way to stop this from happening? like say have the RPM hold at 1.5k from 120 degrees F. to 1 degrees F ?? if this is possible...please explain how i would go about doing so.

i'm pretty sure that having a 3k rpm idle isn't normal

LOL...i know, but once it heats up to 'normal op. temps' it stays at 900 RPMS. i would just like it to stay that way even when the coolent temps are below regular operating temps.

your idle vs target table is all jacked up. the value that you have entered at 1500 rpms, enter that value into all rpms after 1500rpms so that you will have a straight line. your hi idle offset is way to high. 5 sec's is allot. 1 to 1.5 secs is what I normally use on cars when I set them up. make those changes and let me know if it helps. are you can pm me you cal and I'm make sure adjustments for you
