ok i have my r/t ecu in my es and im getting a p1289 i think it has to do with me not having the butterflys on my intake mani. now would this cause my car not to run right as in shut off if i hit a certian rpm? is there any way to trick the ecu to think there is butter flys like to wire in a resistor or somthin? also would this have anything to do with my p0118?

well, p0118 is engine coolant temperature sensor input above maximum acceptable voltage...I don't think there is a way to trick the ecu into thinking there are butterfly valves because the R/T ecu doesn't trip a CEL when you take them out if I remember correctly...1289 I can't find, but I imagine it's the fact that you're running an R/T ecu in an SE, probably something to do with Sentry system or something...
