Like the title says I just installed the X-1. She starts up and idles fine but when you give it some gas it doesn't rev up much at all and getting engine code p0121. Any ideas? found the code P0121 Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch "A" Circuit Range/Performance Problem

Make sure ur throttle position plug is fully seated. It's right where the intake meets the throttle body

I did the same thing when I installed my blower. Ran fine but when I hit the gas it did the same thing ur saying and I got the same code.

I bet it's the plug not fully seated

O don't worry i just ran out without logging off. First impression it runs much better/smoother and throws you back in your seat a little harder.:top: The best thing about the x-1 is the other mods I'll be able to add now. The install went well especially considering i have no real experience and had to take off the s/c with no instructions i had a harder time with my ss track ready kit.

Welcome to the x1 club! You will fall in love with your truck all over again. Your truck is now injected with x1 steroids!

I put a piece of tape on the x1 harnesses for extra security to make sure those plugs won't pop out on me. Just a thought for you.

Yup. Thanks she is running gooooooood now.:rock:

Glad I could help:top:

same thing happened to me, had to take the blower off to install the X-1 and didn't push that plug in hard enough and got the same code.

Now get a smaller pulley and add some 668cc injectors:burnout::vroam:

Pulley is on the way! Then I'll go fuel pump, 7th, NST pulley. If by then they have e85 in my area I'll get the 668's. Rely i need to get rid of this dam flowmaster before anything.

you must get a wideband to ensure everythings ok.... try the launch control on the x-1 if you want to jiss your pants!

Thanks for the warning, I'll make sure to put on a condom first.:top: Got a wide band but I think I need a better one.

did you install the F/I 425 tune file? if not then the program will not reconize your tune

I didn't have that downloaded. The tune shown on my box is slightly different than the one they have listed. It has an extra f3 in it is that ok?
