This wasn't caused by overboosting.
This was caused by oil starvation to the bearings. 2 quarts low out of 4.2. Running it hard through the twisties.
Tried to sneak bearings in it to get it to last. It didn't.
Started knocking again. And attempted to drive it 16 miles on the interstate.
He asked me what to charge you...
I told him, One Million Dollars!!!! (evil) Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

still trying to figure out why my car won't idle right and wants to shut off whenever I come to a stop. Real close to saying screw it and selling the car once I figure out what the problem is this time.

I had the same problem! LOL. I think it might have been lack of lubrication. LOL
Kind of obvious but have you checked the egr?

Im guessing take it off, clean it with brake cleaner and go from there
for all the times this happened to me, it's been the coilpacks. autozone has them at the lowest price, $27
Yeah id try and see, no cost solution if it works and it cant hurt if thats not the problem.

no, don't tell me that. I do remember not too long ago the car is idling rough at a light so I gave it a little gas, just over 1000 rpm and the car sounded like it was cammed, then it went away. Once I start driving, sometime it will feel like it's not going anywhere then all of a sudden, it gains all the power back and throws you back in the seat
