So my car took a s*it on me today...........

[detroittechno]

So to fill you guys in I did a K03 swap recently along with a Vast kevlar RS4 clutch with a resurfaced flywheel, SSAC downpipes and exhaust, new 02 sensors, a new EGT sensor. I am running GIAC X CHIP ECU.
I was having weird shuttering when I would get on the gas in like 3rd or 15 psi of boost. Vast did a boost leak test for me and said it was rock solid last week. This issue has come up after the test so don't know if I have acquired a boost leak since then. Today I was at a red light in mid Saturday traffic on a major road and my car stalls and won't start back up. Noticed a weird clicking sound coming from my fuse box (sounds like when you have on a blinker flashing) and under my Y pipe on the motor. I took out one of the ecu fuses in the fuse box and the noise stopped. Put the fuse back in and it started making the noise again. Now the clicking sound happens when I am cranking the car trying to start it. Any input would be greatly appreciated!!! Thank you guys in advance.

ignition issue? so the motor isnt cranking when you're turning the key? It's just making the clicking sound? I saw this on my cousin's turbo honda, but taht was just from a dead/low battery. we jumped it and it worked just fine. hopefully its that simple for you haha

The exact same thing happened to my 2.8 (clicking from fuse box as well) when the socket on my chip backed off inside the ecu, just popped it off and secured it with some good old zip ties. I don't even know if they solder or socket chips in the S4s or if their all flashed. Just a thought.

The motor is cranking fine, think it is something in ignition or ecu or somethin. Battery not dead.

Codes man, CODES!

I am going to have Vast check it out this week for the codes and to fix whatever is wrong, just want to try and get a heads up of what my issue could possibly be. After that turbo swap I have had more than enough of my share of for a while.
