Have any FI'ers had any kind of throttle response issues?
Guys, I had this issue for two years with fcon and the works. Dead pedal at about 2500rpms and at times, when pushing in the clutch at a light, the car would stall. It is at GTM right now for other issues but hope this is fixed as well. I don't think it's as simple as the utec...

I just went and dicked around with my car right now. Its been sitting still for the past few months, but it is literally NOT EVEN RESPONDING to any of my throttle inputs. It just idles at 1750 rpms and does absolutely nothing. So now even if I want to get rid of it, I have to have it towed to somewhere because my car/ems/tune/whatever is so shitty that the car can't even move out of my goddamn driveway.
If anyone has any thoughts, feel free to throw them out there.
Just out of curiousity, how much are people paying for Osiris?

Uprev license = $300
Tuning = $400 - $900 depends on tuner
HPX MAF = $200
yea im getting more errors than you guys, but the main ones are 2122, 2138, and possibly 1229. And basically Ill press on the gas and nothing will happen. The revs wont even move. and then If I shut the car off, wait a couple minutes and turn it back on I can move again for a couple miles untill it does the same thing.
So why don't you remove the UTEC and find out for sure? Seriously, I could do it myself with a screwdriver and socket in 5 minutes. I'm willing to put money down that you've got some serious electrical issues, possible water on/in the ECU or shorted wires..hopefully it's JUST the UTEC damaged by the water.
Okay, so I have an update...
I went to start my car, throttle was not responsive. So I shut the car off, disconnect the Utec, plugged it back in and the car ran perfectly! No CEL's, held boost fine, everything was good. However, about 10 miles down the road, the issue popped back up. I disconnected the Utec again, and sure enough, it ran fine again.
However, I'm sure the issue will come back. I was convinced before that the Accelerator Pedal Position sensor (ie, the gas pedal) was the problem. But the car is capable of running without problems, so what could it be?! Thoughts?

I removed the big harness with the lever from UTEC. As soon as I pulled it out, the car died. I could not start the car without the large harness connected. Is there something else I need to be disconnecting?
Remember that wiring wise, the UTEC sits BETWEEN the stock ECU and the car.
