Default Car running poorly, P0106

Went to take my car out today, and it was sort of sputtering upon mild accelleration and while idling. got a p0106 code? Is that something map sensor related? Is it in my tune, or is something broken? Thanks guys.

It's a sanity check, map vs tps vs rpm.

Stock or running for a long time on same tune with no issues = something broken

Recent mods untuned?

Well it was tuned a few months ago with the cam install, but I know it needs a retune. It runs rich, and has a random misfire code. So I should get it retuned first?

Only mods since tune were true duals and ssra. But I'm pretty sure te tune wasn't spot on to begin with.

Diagnostic enablers for misfire and P0106 are commonly
massaged on a cam tune since it's been months ago
since the tune and you say it runs like **** makes me
think it's broke and the P0300 is a real problem.
PCV and booster hoses and other sources for vacuum
leaks need checked plugs, wires, lazy O2s

Well the misfire was since day one on the tune. I barely have been driving the car. It's getting dropped at the tuners Monday.
