the bogging almost sounds like what is happening to me after i put my new O2 sensor it. I know its probably not going to help, but if you have the chance take a look at both your o2 sensors. inspect them and make sure they are not clogged or anything. couldnt hurt

Well after searching we found the problem!!!
It was the MAP Sensor O-Ring. Sensor was still good but the o-ring was not providing a good seal since it bust. So I am ordering a complete new MAP sensor and Im throwing in a new set of spark plugs even though mine arent old, but due to the bad map they are black from too much fuel and I'd rather be safe than sorry. Thanks everyone!

I finally was able to pull the codes.. they are
P0122 Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch A Circuit Low Input
and
P0172 System too Rich (Bank 1)
Could the leak in the MAP sensor O-Ring be causing both of these errors?

The car runs decently with the TPS disconnected, but stalls out at lights and I get 110 miles per tank, which is roughly 8mpg. I used my VAFC to "tune" it a little bit and put less gas into the system and it has improved alot, however...
I havent gotten the new MAP yet and now im throwing a third code 1129, Map Sensor Too High (kinda makes sense) but I am worried my TPS might be bad also.
So I am purchasing a new oem throttle body to replace my 68mm Skunk2. I will go ahead and install the new MAP if I get it, and see if it fixes it. If it doesnt work, Ill put the OEM on and sell the Skunk2 68mm TB as I dont want to go through the hassle of moving all the sensors to the Skunk2 for the problems to come back later, maybe just put on the new MAP on the OEM TB and call it a day..

Hey,
Im doing great
Just upset that these problems started after having the TB on for almost a year now. I was able to get an oem tb with the sensors for 100 bucks, now Im just waiting for it to get here. I will sell my 68mm tb once I get the new one installed. How about you? hows everything going for u?

yeah its pouring today.. kinda sucks but thank god i installed my new soft top this past weekend, old one was all tore up. The TB is the root of all the codes coming out, so I figure changing it back to stock would be fine. I dont think I will lose any power going from a 68mm to an oem, esspecially since my manifold isnt bored out to match it...
