I was just wondering if you have had anymore problems out of your interceptor yet? Did you contact the vendor and find out the information that you needed?

I hope you get everything worked out. I am really wanting to get one of these for myself but don't want any problems. I already got my stcok ss/sc pillar on the way. Please keep me posted on what you find out.
Thanks
Thanks

I guess there not answering back because of the weekend.
How hard is it to remove and reinstall the pillar? I haven't messed with it yet but it looks like just a couple of clips are holding it in place. Any special technique needed or just pull it off?

OK, I apologize for this inconvenience but you'll you have to send it back for a re-flash, there is a glitch in the software that wasn't discovered until after your gauge was sent out.
The performance timer uses a very high speed data rate, it may be too fast for your car's data system. We were not aware of this problem but will look into and my need to slow it down on your car. Has the performance timer worked when you've been able to stop the car and start the timer in a shorter period of time?
TQ is only available on automatic transmissions. Don't know what you have but keep that in mind. The 2005/6 2.2/2.4 Cobalts had limited parameters support compared to the 2007 for example. HP should be supported though, are you getting a MAF lb/min reading? This is necessary to get hp.
thats the response from aeroforce.

I have an 07 so I wonder if this would give me less problems? I guess I might wait a month and let them get everything worked out before I order mine.
Thanks for the update.

I have an 07 SS/SC and I bought the interceptors a long time ago and when I first got them they had some problems like completlly shutting off or they would freeze and they didnt read all the parameters they should have so I contacted Aeroforce and I had to send them back to get reflash/reprogrammed and they have been perfect since!

i got dual interceptors last year for my 06 SS/SC--hooked the power wires to the OEM boost gauge power wire, and still doesn't work. I think I'm giving up on gauges. :P
