What was the exact code?

"fuel/air metering" is the group name for codes having a 3rd digit of 1 (emissions related) or 2 (non-emissions related).

did you have your car tuned for the nitrous ? you may have a lean or rich air fuel mix when you use it and it will trip the code. i dont know much about it but that would be my guess.i have a kenne bell and that happens to when they cange the fuel formula in the winter for the cold weather,for that time of year i have to go to a gas station in my area that has fuel with no ethanol and it wont trip the code.
