Default Keep getting codes P2176,P2135

I have a 2006 Z06, With built motor, YSI and all supporting mods. Car is tuned by ECS. Keep getting these codes it puts the car in power reduced mode until a turn it off and on a few times. I know the code says something about throttle position sensor. Do I need to replace the sensor or is something esle going on. ECS told me under hard pulls the code will come up. But lately with no hard driving it's happening. Anyone else have this problem?

sounds like a tune or fuse issue to me.

I have seen this before with larger boosted cars when the throttle blade/motor starts wearing out. The boost over powers the blade/motor and if the Computer see's any variation from where it is supposed to be, to where it is, (not sure on the actual %) it will put the car in reduced engine power and throw those codes as the safety to the electric throttle.
We have actually had to convert a handful of cars to a cable throttle body to eliminate this problem on the really high boosted cars.

I cant say for sure thats what is happening, but we have seen that here more then once. I do feel confident that it is not in the tune, but either way we would be happy to try and assist you with the problem.

What would it take to convert it to a cable. I'll be putting in that shorter radiator in the next week and have to see you anyway.
