Default Nick Williams 103 Throttle body problems/rebuild

Hello I wanted to see if anyone here has had to rebuild their Nick William 103. Mine Is currently throwing codes P1516 and P2101 and I cant go full throttle without it the car going into limp mode. I wanted to know what parts I should buy.

No experience myself, but the HPtuners board discusses what looks like a tune adjustment.

HPTuner discussion

Also some mentions of tune change here on CF.

Going into limp mode is more than likely the Throttle Position Sensor values that need to be adjusted from 100% in HPT. Get with a competent tuner that has worked with NW products before, the NW103 according to many people, including my own build, needs to be adjusted to appropriate values. For whatever reason 100% is not the appropriate value. Good news is a tune should resolve it.
