It could be your Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor:



P/N: 7801021020 Est. cost: $380

Might be a pricey thing to just go out and buy for a trial and error way of troubleshooting. But if you think everything is straight with the car ie: air filter, MAF, clean injectors, proper tune / reflash, good plugs..... then i would say try it.

i aim for the people running stop lights. but until then it dosnt make any sense. as soon as the throttle starts to close i can let off and floor it again and it builds boost again and stays 100%. it wouldnt have any thing to do the the header and i dont have the anti fouler fix done? i cant put the stock one back on cause the 02 sensor is stuck in the header for what ever reason it went hand tight in. and allso befor i supercharged it i ran a 16.0 at 86mph so somthing was wrong befor the supercharger?

has anyone every had a bad knock sensor or cps? what would be like if it was bad? and where is the knock sensor located? my guess is it has to be electronical because the throttle closing so it cant be bad timeing or anything like that. cant beleave this never happened to anyone else
