Today I got my new intake pipe installed. No more PVC
 Started a basic tune. When I got that done with that I decided to do a 3rd gear pull. I set some basic numbers for my high throttle and give it a go. When the pull was done my car starts studering really bad. I imediatly got off of the interstate. I look at my logger and it's showing 1.06 on the O2. As I'm roling up to the stoplight off of the throttle I'm seeing .92 and I know something is really wrong. I nursed her long enough to get to my girlfriend's house and when I get there I pop the hood. There's my UICP blown off of the throttle body  I was so scared. I pushed it back on and turned the car back on so the turbo could cool off. Luckly nothing broke, but that was scary.
