Default Ported TB and SES light?

Is this a common occurance I just put on my Ported TB yesturday, mar car is running fine, no rough, low or high idle, definitely has excellent throttle response but today while driving the SES light came on, doesnt seem to be affecting performance or anything, does this mean I just need to get my car tuned, I am taking it to Harden Motorsports next wednesday to have Pacesetter LTs and TSP True Duals (sweet thunder) installed and it will be tuned then. Its ok to wait till then correct?

Get the code checked to see what it is.

Did you do the bumpstop mod too? If too much is ground away it will cause a throttle position sensor high voltage code.

I have a S2 on my car with no SES light or any problem, so it could be the bump stop like HeapaShifter said. Who did the porting?
