Default Help

Hey guys,

I was in the middle of a mod right before leaving to school (tomorrow) and for some reason the car won't boost and the check engine light is on. This happened on Friday and my mechanic hooked up the VAG to it and he said somehow the throttle body got reset. So he reset it and raised the RPMs. Any suggestions as for correlation or any other assumptions as to what it could be?
