K, I want some descriptions of running like ****, if anyone could do it. I know we are talking lumpy idle but are we talking jerking and some smoke? Please give a description since this is what I believe is the only thing wrong with my car.

When mine died, my rev limit was 1500 and my top speed was 30...it was a fun drive home. For the 2 years I had the car before it died, it would give me some hesitation every once in a while at high RPMs and full boost. That went away when I got the new TPS.
