Thats the kit i have, ive been working with rodney its a new thing for the cobalts from them.

this is a MAF box. We have determined that everything is wired right, im getting signals from the power and MAF wire when on. The pump works we tested it by putting power straight to it. The dip switches are set right, but it still wont work and im in limp mode. Anyone who has used a MAF box before some help would be great.

Not completely new, snows had it out for a little while, and its mostly used by Vette and Mustang owners but no one other then me runs the AIS kit with it yet. What it does is connect to the MAF and uses the frequency of the air coming in to tell it when to kick the pump on. No vaccum lines, there four wires, Red (power, works) Black (ground works) Green (connects to the pump) Yellow (connects to yellow MAF wire in PCM works)

Sorry pic didnt work this is a MAF box

See thats the thing ive been on the phone with Rodney from AIS non stop basically trying to figure it out. Everything wired right i used a multimeter to prove it, and he said all the boxes are tested prior to shipping. Its just the fact im in limp mode and the box wont work, does anyone know if you can tune and turn off limp mode?

probably... i'm guessing the dealer just does it with the tech2 after they fix the problem. so hpt could possibly be able to turn it off..
