Post ls no fun 1

Hey guys, i am rather new to the ls1 family. i love the sound and the feel of the torque but have serious driveability issues. I have 95 TA converted to 01 WS6 complete with LS1 and 6-speed. The car has had a noticeably bigger cam put in as well as injectors and an 80mm throttle body. The problem is the TPS keeps going out and now MAF is acting up. Is there anyone with these issues ? I am about ready to explode.

Have you checked to make sure all the grounds are tight? Any time you have multiple sensors acting funny, that is usually the problem. Run over everything to make sure they are tight and no wires are burned, pinched, broken, etc.

What do you mean by the TPS is going out? Are you getting codes related to it or are you observing a loss in signal?

This, especially since it has been a conversion, the wires could have been damaged.
