HELP!! No throttle response after FAST install
Ok car starts rev to 2000rpms( by it self) and no throttle response. Here are the codes
P1120 TPS 1 Circuit
P1220 TPS 2 Circuit
P1516 TAC Position Performmance
Is it because it doesnt know what to do with the FAST and 90mm tb on it or what?
What can I do if anything?

Are you using an adapter for the factory wiring to the 90mm TB? If so, the adapters have been known to be wired wrong.

You have no throttle response because the car goes into Reduced Power mode when the P1516 is set.
I'd say you have some connection issues with the new TB. The TPS (throttle position sensor on the TB) errors seem to confirm that. What TB are you using and harness adapter (if not using a billet TB)?

Im using a TPIS 90mm TB so no adapter. The TPS sensor is brand new. It revs to 2k by itself. I can push the gas and I get nothing.

And he won't be able to even get to the tuning until he solves his throttle position sensor issue and stays out of REP mode.
An air leak doesn't cause failure of two separate TPS circuits.

That high of idle flare at startup is a very typical result when bolting on a FAST and 90mm TB without tuning for it.

pull each of your electrical connection you undid installing your fast specificall to your throttle body. Take a long, slow look at your male and female connections, and look at a bend male end going into a female, or a bend in female.
Striaghten out the male connection, slowly and gentlly reconnection the electrical connection and clear codes.
You'll be good to go
