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??

Right. Each time the code came up I was NOT boosting. Going to pull the code this evening after I put the car in the garage. Thanks for the help with this guys.

Lagos, I completely agree with the setup liking colder air. I did a 5th gear pull against my buddies 99 AWD A4 with some work, and noticed (thanks to the nexus gauges going red) that I was at 20 PSI instead of 17 PSI like normal. But the AMAZING part was that it HELD the 20 PSI for the duration! Which is leading me towards playing with a small meth shot as an induction cooler and a safety net against detonation at that level. Won't happen until after the move unfortunately, but it's something to look forward to doing.
