Got my paxton installed, and I have a problem. Sometimes when I start the car it quits, also it starts like missing and bucking when driving. It bucks bad when I floor it in fourth gear. Has anyone ever experienced this with their supercharger?

ummm, dumb question, but did you install a chip or get a tune done yet? Sounds like lack of fuel to me. New fuel pump? Maybe clogged fuel filter.

I got the chip paxton supplied with the kit I bought. It also had a in-tank fuel pump.
I sent my computer to them and they put it in.

You'll rarely find people running the base tunes that come from vortech or paxton. I would seek a better tune.

If its undrivealbe , call paxton and see if you can overnight the ECM back to them so they can try to get your tune closer , but either way , even if you get them to re do the chip , find someone to do a dyno tune on it , its the only way to get it right , i drove my car from VA to GA just to get tim to tune it for me . Hes the man .
