I just got my gsx and am currently driving it home. Trying to find out why the cigarette lighter plug wasn't working for my gps, I took a to see if it was connected under the dash. It was not, in fact it was cut off to feed power to other things in the car. Thinking I'd get to that when I had more time (and tools) I put all the wires back into the dash. Then the gauges including wideband do not work. There are a lot of aftermarket parts on this car including a meth injection kit. I believe that is what's making the clicking going uphill. And to my understanding that means I am getting significant engine knock, correct? Help me get this home safely please! I already turned the boost down and it doesn't seem to help.
 
What is the car running management wise? Ecmlink? The description is vague, but is it a mehanical tick or like a relay ticking? Will it do it under boost too or just going uphill?
 
Does it hesitate while going up the hill or run smoothly?
