Electronic throttle control.. please help
So i got my intake and custom tunes from bama today. after installing my intake with no problem i uploaded one of my custom bama tunes. after installing i started the car up and noticed a little wrench icon, and the car had went into the "limp-home" setting. im not sure if its because of a bad tune or tuner, anyone had this problem? advice? thanks

Are you sure you reconnected the MAF properly and that the intake connections (at both the CAI and at the TB) are tight and sealed? Those are often the culprits of CEL's and wrench icon on initial installation. And since you still have the wrench after flashing back to stock, my guess is the MAF.
When I first installed my CAI & tune, I had forgotten to plug the MAF back in and got the wrench about 100 yards from the house.
Once you resolve the problem, the car will reset and the wrench light will go off.
