Solution to GTA Driveability Problem

I posted here before about poor driveability, lots of smoke and stalling, bucking in my GTA. I was looking at CTS, spark plugs, cap/ rotor, wires, timing chain, ecm grounds, alternator, etc. I was getting code 53. I finally had enough, and took it to a mech, and the solution was to give the car a new computer and a new prom.
