Default Emissions test and codes

After my vararam install and mail order tune I started getting the P0172 and 0175 codes. I clear them and they stay away for a while, then come back. Does anyone know how many miles the car needs to be driven after clearing the codes for them not to be seen during emissions testing?

Thanks in advance.

Typically ,about 50 miles,two key cycles,before the readiness monitors perform the required tests. The car will need to go through an emissions drive cycle,completing the readiness tests required to pass OBD2 testing in your area.I would bet your codes will come back before the monitors flag,perhaps you could have the MO tune modified slightly ?
