I took the car in to the place that installed the kit and it was there for three weeks and not once could they replicate the results. I've had it back now a couple of days and it hasn't failed to start yet but it has done two almost hang starts where the starter spins the engine for about two seconds before it decides; "Oh hey I need to wake up."

In an unrelated issue or maybe it is related, my airbag light has been flashing. I had the shop use their $8000 code reader and it came up with nothing. They just reset the code and after a couple of days it came back.

All of these issues popped up after the supercharger install. Does anybody have any thoughts? Has anyone seen this before? All suggestions are welcome and questions if it will help you come up with an answer.

Thank You
Does it start after the car is hot also?

Either way, congrats on the kit! You should take it to your local dyno and check on a few things for you like, power deliver and what's your AFR's
