Low vacuum at idle, with idle drop

Ok my cars been acting wierd...its idles between 10-7 vacuum...and when im driving and let off it its at 15 vacuum. Then when i come to a stop, my car willl drop to 500rpms then back up to a 1000.....Its been tuned for everything i have and ive pressure tested it and fixed all the leaks i can find...Im bout to put tb seals in it...What do yall think it is, anyone with the same prob?

Do you have bigger cams? And yes, I would recheck for vacuum leaks again, sounds like the same symptoms I had with my car.
