    I dont know but it just started doing it, and now I have these codes, could it be the MAP sensor that went out?

    Do a compare of your tune vs. a 2000 stock Vette. I noticed that a number of the MIL enables etc. had been messed with (for some reason).

    I think you will end up chasing your tail a lot in that tune. A bold/broad statement.. But, it is relatively easy to make power tuning on a dyno, but it is A LOT harder to nail all the idle transition stuff to give the car manners.

    Yeah I think I'll have to start with a brand new tune. I got my LC-1 hooked up and reading correct so I'm going to start tunning the VE with it.

    If you do start from a stock tune again make sure you change the B0104 value as you have a 408 ci motor

    OK, this problem HAS to be mechanical, there is no reason for the car to rev it self like that. I mean sometimes it drives and idles like a dream, other times is just revs it self to close to 4000 while rolling, once its stopped it comes down to normal after a few seconds. Sometimes it revs it self out of the blue so hard that it makes the traction control kick in. (its been raining these days)

    What can I do??? :(

    Have you checked the return spring on the throttle shaft/cam at the TB, is it weak/broken...?

    Its an ETC and when I log the absolute throttle when its idling fine it shows ~7% throttle and when it goes crazy it shoots up to 12% for no apparent reason.

    You should log all airflow adders to see if you can figure out which table it's coming from (cracker, follower, etc.).
