This was all I did about 3-4 months ago and haven't had the CEL anymore.

He said that it's the programming on the GM MAF and there's nothing that can be done about it at this time except to return it for a full refund. He even said that it doesn't matter how old it was just return it and get your money back. He then said to use Model 69-4520TP and the problem would go away. He said that the only difference between the two was that the 69-4520TP was a metal intake tube and not a plastic one.
I'm in the process of returning mine (it was a gift from my son) so hopefully this clears the problem up. I'll let you know how it goes if you need the follow-up.
I'll keep this in mind if it happens again. I do like the black intake tube though, would hate to have to change it to the metal one.
