Well turboford has been down for like a week now, I've tried everything, ive replaced the TFI witha known good one, i checked the vam it seems fine. It starts up just fine, but then when i go to click on the link it just doesnt do anything?

Can anyone help me?

Are you running a flex fan or a flowmaster? That may be the problem

I do have a flowmaster, but i got the one with the performance bearings in it so that shouldnt be the problem. I'm going to add a few ground straps to my USB port see if that helps anything Thanks for the helP!

If all else fails, try your Chevy wrench. That helps sometimes. Mine is about a five pounder.

Make sure you lube the bearings in the flow. Oh...........and double check the orange ground wire to the turbo...........always a problem!

I've taken some of your guys advice, And ive added an long throw shifter and put a few more hockey pucks on my clutch (these sposed to go on the pedal or the shifter?). I think a superchip may fix it, anyone have a good sorce for them? This thing is gonna fly, i think the flexfan is creating lift!
