Default C6 corvette check engine light on

I just installed a vararam intake on my 07 and the check engine light came on after a couple days. Had a buddy of mine reset the throttle body so it can get use to the new intake but engine light came back on after a couple days. Does anyone have an suggestions?

You posted this in the Intro section - by the way, Welcome to the CF!

The C6 section is where you want to hang out and ask questions like this. Those guys will help you out. Hopefully a Mod will move this thread there for you. Good luck.

You need to pull the codes to see what is causing the issue. Most auto parts store will do this for free if you don't have an OBD2 scanner. Figure out which codes are tripping the check engine light and get back to us.

The code was throttle closed position performance.
