lossing power when engine is warm.

Just fixed my car after smashing the front left corner, now it cuts out once it gets up to temp. Car runs great cold, but then throws a code and will only run up to about 1/4 throttle. Let the car cool off and it runs good, CEL goes out. I haven't pulled the code yet but will after work.
Any advice?

got a 22 (Knock Sensor), 23 (Air Flow Sensor), and 45 (Pressure sense and exchange). When I drove the other day the boost controller lines had been disconected and I overboosted and got fuel-cut a few times, I think thats what the 22 and 45 are from. gonna see how to check the MAF, I assume thats what the 23 is for.

Have you tried resetting the ecu and waiting to see which come back up.

I just tried a couple times to reset the ECU, either I'm doing it wrong (probable) or I'm getting the same codes again.
While driving in check mode to reset, the CEL started flashing code 45. Since I have a Fuel Cut Defender I'm gonna make sure the wiring on that thing didn't get messed up.

Found the harness on my FCD partially unplugged, short test drive wasn't able to duplicate the problem. Hopefully that was it, now I just need to figure out the right way to clear these codes...
