I do have the xlink harness as well. I am having a lot of troubles trying to tune this thing. Any advise would help. Thank you.

    That's reduced engine power that you're going into. I've never had any luck using LS3/7 throttle bodies (identified by the gold blade ), but have always been able to use the LS2 throttle bodies without issue which have the silver blade. PM coming your way.

    golden throttle blade TB will NOT work with PCM earlier then 2008. They open into the opposite direction and screw up TAC module. You have to use a silver blade TB from a LS2 or early LS7. been there - done that
