Post New BBK 5005 Intake, now getting DTC codes

So I just had my new BBK SSI 5005 intake manifold put on, after driving back from the shop to my apartment my service engine light came on. I pulled out my Hypertech unit to find out what the DTC codes were and this is what I got. The Service light didn't come on until I arrived back here (about an hour long drive).

P0171 and P0174

I know the code means that its possibly running lean, where would I start at to check and fix the problem?

Thanks,

Forrest

How's the idle mine idled funny till I figured out the gasket bbk sends for the tb didn't have the ports cut out cut out the ports on the gasket and all problems went away. Are you on the stock tune? I would atleast get a mail order tune as it really woke my car up aftert the intake

Also since I've been having this issue, my car has almost stalled a few times and my oil pressure has dropped by over a quarter. At idle my pressure has fallen to maybe 15-20, where before it was always on the 40. Any more ideas before I take it back in and tell them what to look at?
