Did you remove the one way check valve that is right after your throttle bottle body where you took your vacuum signal for the int-x and all your other components (BOV, Boost gauge)? i believe its green and white!!

make sure the power cable for the int-x has the fuse properly installed and that it isn't blown.

Mysql seems to be right - do the Int-X LEDs light?

the fuse is blown. joo need another. possibly 2. so you can see if it happens again, and then try to diagnose the problem. then try again. maybe 3. :P

Does it turn over?? Do you have upgraded injectors?? Do ou have it hooked up correctly? You need a Vac/boost signal to the unit for it to work.......start at the beginning and think through the whole install.

After that........is it flooded ( likely)

If it still doesn't start...give us a bit more information...

i had the same problem when i had the Int-X. it would start with the OE PCM but not with the Int-X hooked up. make sure you have the right map loaded up.

i got the AP over the Int-X and it's awesome...
