Default P0106 Error Code

My 2017 C7Z M7 is constantly throwing this same error code, P0106, at approx. 124MPH in 4th when you are at it at those speeds consistently. It has gone in to the dealer 3 times for the same code. This last time they changed the MAP sensor as they said the air fuel fixture was off due to a malfunctioning MAP sensor. It did it again today at those same exacts conditions. However, each time you can reset it by simply turning the car on/off 3-4 times. I do have an aftermarket Holley Intake on the car and that is when these problems started.

Should I go back to stock?
Is there something else I can do?

Any help and/or advise is greatly appreciated.

I had Onstar do a diagnostic check as soon as this happened and below is what they told me on the phone and emailed as well:

ECM - Engine SystemP0106The Engine and Transmission System is not performing as expected. An issue has been detected in the Air Induction System which monitors and controls air intake to the engine. If the check engine light is flashing, a misfire condition has been detected. A misfire increases vehicle emissions and could damage the emission control system on the vehicle. Please reduce vehicle speed, avoid hard accelerations, avoid steep uphill grades, and reduce any cargo loads such as a trailer.

Here's a thread with the links to the TSB: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...his-issue.html

Ignore the above poster, neither of their suggestions are the right way to fix the P0106 while retaining your filter. This is a documented issue with the tune on 2017s and there is a TSB that can be pulled up by any GM dealer. The above thread has more context.
