CEL Codes
#1
I currently have a built engine in my stang, running the stock tune, for the moment. The computer is throwing a CEL (Big surprise [/sarcasm]) and I have a question about them.
P0401 (Insufficient EGR Flow) I have the EGR deleted so no big surprise there

This is the one I really don't know anything about, the car wasn't running, and I assume it's throwing this code because of that. But I'm unsure
P1260 Theft Detected Engine Disabled
???? Like I said they car wasn't running, I was using the proper key with the chip and it starts up just fine with that key, it won't start if I use my spare door only key I made at a hardware store to keep in my wallet in case I lock my keys in the car. I've used this to crank the engine over to prime the oil system on the initial start up, and a few times to unflood the engine after disconnecting the battery for one reason or another.
I don't think these are anything to worry about, but I wanted some input before I just ignore these. I know the EGR code will go away when I deactivate it with my tune I should be getting in a few weeks, but like I said, I was unsure about the other two.

I had this one Once and It was gone the next time I started my car. It came up after I tuned it and had not started it yet. I think its just a phantom code that comes up before it does its self testing of all the sensors.
