When I disconnected the TP on mine, the Idle stabilised at 800-900rpm.The fact that yours is not running as would be expected in "safe Mode" would lead me to look elsewhere, I would be looking for an air leak into the inlet system initially.
Tend to agree - disconnecting the ISCV puts it into "safe mode" so that the ECU disregards the sensor signals and runs on basic settings. If it won't run like that, then there's something else wrong with the basic engine setup - a fuelling problem, or an air leak most likely. Could also be air flow meters, etc.
Can you borrow a vaccuum gauge? Magic tool - allows basic diagnostics if connected to the plenum chamber.
Mobile tuning firms (like garages) can be a bit variable - they tend to be one-man franchises so it depends on how good the man is at using his kit.
I tried a local one years ago, when all else failed, and he was absolutely brilliant - he diagnosed some obscure fault in no time. I had to buy a part, fitted it and he came back and optimised the tuning and still only charged me as one "visit".
