On my way to work today the gtp started acting funny. Its fine till I try to go past 2/3 throttle. The supercharger spools up, my boost gauge goes up, but it just shudders like its not getting enough air or fuel. Tranny is shifting ok...Any helpers out there please

Could be a clogged fuel filter or cat converter.

This happened to me when my grand prix was misfiring. Ended up being a combination of bad wires and a bad coil pack. How new are your plugs, wires, and coil packs. Mine went bad around 75k I believe.

Edit: just saw your new post, get it scanned to check codes!! i bet it will say misfire

Flashing CEL usually means multiple misfires. Check the codes and take it from there.
