Default MissFires

Have a 2010 A6 that recently had a ecs kit installed.
Im getting it retuned and the new tuner wanted me to check a few things.
One of them was to make sure the restrictor ring was correct.
After putting everything back together the aeroforce gauge is showing missfires.
Would the airfilter or tube connecting to the Sc poss cause this?
Thanks

the most common source of misfires in a Corvette is a loose or bad sparkplug wire. Make sure all are tight
