un plug the battery for a about 20 minutes, then it should rest the computer.

Actually the battery should have already been disconnectted when you install the items. Just for information, did the parts include instructions to do so. My trot body and plenum from Blue Oval had instructions to do so.
They also instructed me to start the car and let it idle on it's own until normal operating temp. the shut off.... Maybe this will also help...
Cheap parts , but a ton of good instructions.

make sure your idle screw is set right cuz that could cuz problems, make sure all the hoses are connected securely, and like he said reset your battery and let it idle til its warm one time i forgot and the idle was all over the place
