    Default Starts but then dies

    2004 Z06

    I emailed my tuner and they sent me a tune for the new setup. After the full reflash, I turned the key to the run position a few times to build up fuel pressure. I tried starting the car twice, it started and ran for about 3 seconds then died. Is there any way to tell if I didn't do something right on the install vs the tune?

    I tried starting it a few more times this morning and it threw a P0101 code (MAF) System Performance

    Was I suppose to do anything after flashing the ECU? Any calibrations?

    I did notice a few weird noises coming from the CD player. No idea what the heck that is from. Should I have to charge the new battery?



    What I did
    -Replaced the battery
    -Full flash, SD tune replaced with tune for new setup.
    -Replaced 60lb injectors with stock Z injectors
    -Removed STS TT system
    -Installed headers, VRAM, TI Exhaust
    -Removed MSD booster pump, gray wire for fuel pump was cut and I soldered that up
    -Soldered brown and purple MAF wires that were tapped for the remote IAT sensor
    -Removed oil pump for TT system
    -Removed AIR system & rear 02s
    -Removed & reinstalled intake manifold to access AIR pump bracket and clean


    Thanks.
