Driving home from work today, check engine light came on. No immediately apparent driveability issues until I tried to accelerate from a stop. Barely able to do it and car would buck and surge like crazy. I got up to speed and putting the car in neutral, shut if off for about 5 seconds (still rolling mind you, just in case it didn't want to start back up) and then I keyed the power on and let the clutch out, and she came right back to life, no check engine life. All seemed fine. About 10 minutes later, did the same thing, so I did the same thing. All was fine again all the rest of the way home.

Is there any way to check the codes on the Gen II swaps??

52 -- Knock Sensor Circuit. Looks like I need to double check the wiring connections that were made with the ATS GM KS Conversion kit. It's only an intermittent issue, and has only happened three times, but it's damn inconveniencing to have to shut the car off and restart.



sounds to me like you blew the knock sensor from running WAY too much boost. you should keep the car at about 13-14psi on pump gas. with water injection you can take this up to 15-17psi, but anything over is not a good idea since this turbo was never really designed to run at those boost levels.
