Default TBSS Tb Magnacharger REP Code?

I am having a REP code p1516 come up under wot around second gear shift or speed. Not sure if this is a problem with the nitrous system making the truck throw the code or the TBSS tb. I have heard stories of ppl with this tb having issues with forced induction. What where the issues and what codes would that throw?

I've never thrown that code with my 90mm. I'm running the LS2(Vette) TB.

The TBSS/SSR TB has a weak servo and will contiue to do this more and more. The fix is to replace it with the LS2 car style TB.

Never had a problem with the LS2 Vette tb. I did have problems with the 02 escalade TAC module setting 1516 and 0220 codes. Module was bad.
