I'm really confused as to what is going on can you help me thanks

can you see the clutch on the sc engage/diengage?

plug in etc etc

yea it sounds like a clutch problem. rev it by hand hard so the clutch should engage. with your head in the engine bay so you can see if the little clutch thing pops down.

Don't know much about SC's but i think it could only be the clutch or related to what ever mech or electric component controls the clutch????

Sounds like its not engauging!

Good luck!

the easiest way is to disconnect the clutch plug and just run a direct line to the battery. You then don't need the car running and you can hear if it is engaging this is how i sorted mine out (thanks to more knowlegable people on here)

check all your plugs etc make sure they are pluged in properly, mainly AFM plug ( if you have one) or the throttle sensor plug , cause if either of them arnt connected properly then the ecu will put the car into like a safe mode were the car wont engage in boost....

happened to me a couple weeks ago lol

make sure the car is of when you do it ( and make sure they are all plugged in all the way )

check the clutch as said...
