I keep getting the p0236, how do i fix??
So I keep getting this p0236 code, I have been deleting it with my scanner but it keeps coming back. In getting fluttering noises after I get off the gas, and a/f ratio is all over the place.. Anyone know what the root cause is and how do I fix this? My car is backfiring sometimes when I shift out of 1st also...

I had major P0236 issues for a while due to damaged wires on the connector coming from the lower TMAP sensor. I bought a new pigtail connector and redid the connections and the problem entirely went away. If you didn't get the 'plug and play' connectors with your GMS1 there is a good possibility the problem is in the wiring.

Been there done that.
Check the lower charge pipe TMAP for frayed wires, loose connection, sensor disconnect or anything else abnormal. Could be rubbing on the AC line and you not know it.

There is also the problem with condensation from the A/C line getting into the GMS1 sensor connections and causing issues. That makes it a bitch because it only happens every once in a while.
In my pic, you'll see that I used the new crate engine depot adapters to install my 3 bar sensors. Best money I ever spent. No issues at all.

If you pull your TMAP sensor out and it has a green o-ring, instead of blue, you need to get the blue o-ring on the crate engine depot site.

Why are people concerned about flutter at low boost let off, the lnf does this , get used to it. I tried everything I could think of to get rid of it, even a bov. Nothing worked. On my setup now I don't get any at all , Idk if it's cause of the big turbo or because I drilled out the port on the im , tapped for 1/8 npt and used bigger an4 line to feed my bov . could try that with a bigger line and see if that works for u
