Ok so here's whats going on. First of all, i had a shot knock sensor that i need to replace. So i go to start my car one day to go to work, and it was warm since coming home from school still (still in high school unfortunately, only 17) and it wont start?? so i open the engine this bay and hear a weird ticking coming from my isc. so i figure its shot. so couple days later i unplug it and it starts up with a horrible idle obviously. so i go for a drive and whenever it gets to boost it seems to stutter horribly and cuts out?? any idea wahts causing this. i drove with a busted knock sensor for a couple weeks and i just ran low boost and richened it up a bit extra to be safe with my gcc. Now it wont boost? ideas? is it just a combination of the two and what would cause it to cut out at boost now.
 
mine does the same thing and its not even turbo, i guess its just a mis read and confuses the ecu because its not there when its unplugged. but i tried switchin the isc, and unfortunatley it was bad also, made the clickin noise, and fried my ecu. so be careful man. you can test the coils, they should be 28 to 33 ohms. dont be one off or you could fry the ecu. hope this helps ya
