If noone else said it. FLASHING CELS mean Misfire.
CEL doesn't flash when cat code comes on you silly ninnys!
You are wrong as well. Misfire can be flashing or solid.
And I see a lot of people on here quoting knowledge they learned by reading other threads on the forums. IS IT TO HARD TO ASK THAT PEOPLE STOP TALKING UNLESS IT COMES FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE?! AND NOT SECOND-HAND OR OSMOSIS EXPERIENCE. YOUR MECHANIC BUDDY OR OTHER FRIEND DON'T COUNT!

flashin cel does not only mean misfire, ive thrown a ton of misfire codes p0300 and the light comes on solid, it never flashes.
actually next time it happens Ill take a video with my interceptor showing the code and the check engin light. It always happens when we are tuning and screwing with things

Tuning is pretty easy. Read all of the explanations in HPT. And avoid all the VVT tables 99% of the time.

...it means..."the system is down" ..then the next thing you know your car will come in with a "buna bunahh buna bunahh" all low and fast...then it will come in with a chirp like "punnuh punah nuh nuh punnah punah"...and it will start throwing a headlight rave! (homestar runner reference...just so you know)
I plan on getting some dyno time once the weather isn't well...icy and cold

A flashing CEL as noted in our owners manual and every other cars owners manual is something you should turn the car off instantly and call a tow truck for... A flashing CEL means that driving your car further could result in massive damage. I dont know what is happening with yours but I know a flashing CEL means, shut down.
I had what sounds like the same problem and I got the P0300 code and the CEL (which turned solid later on that day) went away after a day or two and I took it into my local stealership and that's where they told me "it's probably bad fuel because the supercharger cannot run on premium fuel. It's only meant to run on regular gas." after which I laughed and walked out.
But anyway, the car's been fine since.

It probably wasn't float since the springs are good to 7150.
