Thanks guys. It was awesome getting her back on the road. The clutch feels smooth as butter, the shifter is so damn awesome and the steering is just as raw as I remember. It's just a fantastic car.

Like I mentioned a couple posts ago... I am having a problem with the Restraint Control Module (RCM) - it is setting off my traction control which is disabling it and lighting up my dash. I have a continuous U2011 code. I am at a loss for what could be causing it. Then to add to that problem... I think it has disabled the supercharger. I know that the GT500 ECU can disable the supercharger, but I didn't know if this RCM problem would do it. The car drives fine, but it is obvious that the blower is not powering up. I have zero engine lights/codes. Just the traction light.

I'm going to keep researching it tonight and see if I can find anything. I'll be back in the shop for a little tomorrow to take it for another ride and order a couple things.

Here is a small video I put together with a small clip of driving.

How does the ECU tell a belt driven blower to stop? Is there some odd clutch someplace?

Like Ryan said it's a BPV. It can be electronically overridden. But I'm not sure if the traction light issue is responsible or if the actuator is broken.

Ugh. And everything online is no help. Who knows with all this wiring stuff. For all I know it could be a random error due to something completely unrelated.

The bypass valve is vacuum driven. When it sees vacuum, it should be open; when no vacuum is present, it should close. My experience with the blower is on my 3V with the DOB setup and there is nothing but a vacuum line from the manifold to the BPV. I don't know if there is a more complicated setup with the GT500 setup, but since lack of vacuum closes the valve, I'm not sure how there would be electronic overrides (I certainly could be wrong). I assume you've checked and double checked the vacuum lines?

BTW, awesome build! I haven't been on this forum a lot but I have been following this build. Nice job!
