major 06 ss problems for me! HELP

Ok i have had my car for like a week. I got it when it had a little over 400miles on it. I have drove it about 300 myself and im having all kinds of problems. I will list them

1.I have a rattle sound under my car
2.My exhaust is super quite it does not pop or anything.
3.I smell a burnning smell like its misfiring.
4.My rpm's bounce up and down up to 2k and back down like 2-3 times
5.It was cold today and i noticed the exaust fumes coming out under my car some.
6.check engine light on.
7.car ticks anytime you hit the gas.
8.you can floor it and it will atleast chirp second.
9.Seems real slow but i get like 10.5psi


My old car was a Srt-4

Seeing that your car is so new. Bring it back to the dealership right away and have them fix it.

Post its fixed so far

I took it into the shop today and told them that my light was on and they said it was the gas cap. I told them to take it down the road and told them about all the problems it was having.
Here is what codes I got.
po128 - ECT below thermostat regulation temperature
p0604 - low voltage condition
p0326 - engine knock
p0420 - Catalyst system low efficiency
p0717 - Input speed sensor circuit low voltage
p2431 - Secondary Air Injection System Pressure Sensor A circuit range/performance
(A new catalyst may fail this test within the first 200miles or has been sitting for a while due to out gassing of the internal matting.) If this occurs operate the vehicle at highway speeds for about 1hr and reset.

So what they did is they reflashed my computer system. They told me if the light came back on to bring it back and would replace the cat.

So now it feels faster. I have not really got to test it out any. The car does not jump and stuff anymore it feels normal now my exhaust u can hear it now and my boost now goes up to 12 -12.5psi with 800miles. Feels like a diffrent car now

Both of mine did the same thing. It is normal. Not all will boost to 12.5psi. Nothing you can do about it.

Did you get the black one down at Turner Chevrolet? If ya had asked me about taht one i woulda gave you the Red flag...whenever I bought my silver ss/sc from them I had it ordered from morristown TN....they beat that one up a bit....plus whenever I was buying mine I asked to try out the black one that you bought most likely and they said it would not crank due to a clogged cat.

the only exhaust mod is after the factory resonator. 2.5 inch with a magnaflow muffler and a 3inch tip.. the factory set up on my 07 is 2.75 to the rear seats then 2.5 to the resonator inlet.. it was 2.25 out untill the factory muffler with a 4inch tip.. its louder now with a better tone and not to much drone at crusing..
