Throttle body replacement causing issues
Thought putting a new throttle body in my car would be a nice and relatively cheap way to gain a couple hp, so I went ahead and did that. It caused the issue of my check engine light, reduced power mode, traction control failure. I was wondering if this is just a problem with the ECU and with a hp tuner I could resolve this issue? ANY suggestions would be much appreciated.

Changing TB on a stock engine will give you an additional 0 HP. The stock TB flows about 750 CFM while the engine only flows slightly more than 6200 CFM.
With tuning you can make the new TB work but no HP gains
