Just Trifecta Tuned my Cobalt?

Just did the trifecta tune now I have a P0171 code system to lean. I havnt been able to dat log yet. BNR says it can be a wait cause trifecta is out till the 18th. I can def feel a difference. Exept at idle is rough. And ofcoarse I have the P0171. Is this something that will be fixed through data logging?

Is this a base file? i.e. is this the first time youve been retuned?

Make sure you don't have an air leak somewhere. If I remember right that's bank 1 lean, which is usually an air leak between MAF and throttle body. Before the throttle body for sure.

I checked for possible leaks. This is the first time I flashed the car that the only thing I did was flash the first tune file they sent me

Log it for a bit and then just flash it back to stock if you are worried. Send them the log and see what they say.

You cant expect a base file tune to be perfect. About your code, i would listen to soxfan.

I think bnr is flashing it for him so he might not be able to

When I first got my injen intake SRI I got a lean code. Maybe its the injen? Someone told me to check for air leak then. I tightened everything down which the bolts seemed loose and the went away never came back. I will take advise, tuning back to stock right now

Starting to think this tune is awaste. Now I'm told if I go back to stock and have the same issues its not from the tune. I had the damn car 4 years and now all of a sudden its not the tune. Lol

I was wondering cause I wanted to turn off rear cat code when I go catless. But anyways I just got a smoke test done injector 4 was leaking smoke. I'm thinking maybe it could be the problem?

Yes a bad seal it sounds like. Sucks that this happened right now. I hope the code goes away after I get it fixd. Should I get new injectors or just use the old ones?

old ones are probly fine. Start with the cheapest option..IE new O rings and try again, if still lean/ smoke then replace injector.
