Will a low fuel pressure condition set off a CEL? Either with the pump itself or the fuel pressure regulator?

Ill have to pick up some more TB cleaner and do this again. It's done it on all three tunes, so I am sure its not the tune (the 87S, 91P and 91R - all from BAMA); I've never cleaned / recharged the steeda filter, but its only been on the car maybe 4-5 months... I might have to try that. I'll check steeda's site for the kit for it. Thanks for the info

Mileage would be around 7k

Even if you had that full 7k miles on the air filter, it shouldn't need to be cleaned for quite some time unless you're driving on dusty dirt roads all the time. The only other thing I would do before troubleshooting further would be to run 1 or 2 tanks of SeaFoam in case it's injector related. Although I typically add Techron to the tank every oil change or 10k miles (whichever comes first), I save the SeaFoam for when I believe I have an issue with any of our vehicles.
