Has anyone experienced this code? C1278 -TCS inhibited by PCM
2001 Z06 w/ stg II heads, 224 cam, and ATI blower. This code was thrown immediatley after the S/C was installed. As soon as the motor was reved this code was thrown (i.e. car was not moving). Car is driveable as long as you stay out of the throttle, as soon as you even give it a little bit it shuts down. You have to pull over and reset the codes to get moving again. I'm stumped.
Any insight is much appreciated.
TIA

That code is the main reason for tuning after a blower.I'm pretty sure it's tied in the P15XX in the engine diagnostic table's.(don't have exact code right now)The table needs to be multiplied 200% or anytime there is a big MA change the car will go into limp mode .ie 20% throttle max.
