6.0 icp high voltage under certain conditions
So background on the truck, '03 CCSB 6.0. Fuel pressure regulator spring upgrade, K&N intake, and that's about it. Had a slew of problems with the injection system (ended up with a new FICM, IPR, and ICP) that fixed all of my problems, truck ran like a champ and still does.
...until I install the tune from my Superchips Flashpaq. After a couple runs (no WOT, just normal driving), I get the ICP high voltage code (I don't recall the number). Truck doesn't run any different, and acts just fine. I can clear it, but it comes back after another couple trips. If I put it back to stock, all problems go away and don't return. On a side note, before I replaced the ICP I had no issues aside from the ICP bleeding oil everywhere. This problem only arose after I replaced the ICP and pigtail. In fact, the tune was already on the truck when I replaced the sensor, and putting it back to stock fixed it.
I don't have immediate access to any good programmer to see what's going on, but I could probably arrange it in a few days. But here's my question: I know it's possible for any sensor to be bad right out of the box, but if I made the pigtail a bit longer than stock (probably 2-3") because I wanted a bit more slack in it, could that cause my issue? Can anyone tell me what all the Flashpaq changes that could cause this code to be thrown on a truck that runs fine with a stock tune? I've google searched and come up with nothing, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks guys.

The ICP was aftermarket. At the time, I didn't have the cash to pay the premium price for an OEM one. The pigtail, however, was OEM.
And like I said, I can run the truck as hard as I want without the tune, and it won't throw the code. It will only throw it with the tune, even if I baby the truck. I do appreciate the responses though guys. Keep the ideas comin', I'd love to sort this out.
