Edit to add: I provided the wrong code from memory. I am actually getting P0121, the same as you. It looks like an easy fix if we weren't locked out of the tune.

2nd edit to add: I am going to try a different calibration to see if it fixes the code. I'll report back.
Btw, do you use the supplied fuel inlet hose? Seems it must not use as a fuel line...compared to the stock.

I did not change the fuel nlet hose. I just bend the stock fuel line out of the way. I just did my first spirited drive with the new flash from Whipple and it didn't throw a code.

The new flash? Does Whipple send the flash?

Whipple did make some changes that I requested. They were great about it, but use some sugar when you ask if you want your tune modified. I sent my two codes to tech support. They were likely caused by a parameter that monitors throttle position in relation to airflow. They sent me a new file and it seems better so far but I only have one short drive. There is a tech support email address at the back of your install manual. Keep in mind permanent codes require a specific drive cycle to clear. Google how to clear permanent error codes to see how to do it.

Do you have the code numbers for the 2 codes? One is P0121 i assumed.. I emailed, but no response yet.

Do you.mind if I ask you to send the new flash? Ah, the file from Whipple is locked, but you can read it from PCM and can make a new file of flash.

To remove the 2 codes, I tried to change MAF , throttle body, Roto-fab...ect related to Throttle and MAF , but not working. Eventually it is from Mapping data.

Could you check if they change the code as "not reported" in the option? You can find it DTC manu in VCM editor.

Thank you.

The two codes I had were P0121 and P2227. I did not pull the tune back off to see what they changed. If I were you I would email tech and mention you were chatting with me on a forum and the file they sent fixed my codes. Could they please send a revised tune to see if it fixes yours. I just tried a 1/4 mile with the new tune and had to let off, it is ungodly fast. It didn't throw any codes. Good luck.
