Anyone had problems witht he MAP box on this equipment? Any help appreciated - I have also pm'ed a few people as my car is now stuck in my garage!
Many thanks

with spell I mean that there is some space between the cilinder and how do you call it?(I'm from the netherlands can you tell me how you call the item that is in the cilinder and attached on the crank?)the ticking is in the cilinder.
my box has one set of wires and the vacum tube coming out of the same side. is that a correct vafc or can you send me a correct diagram?

The "computer box" that comes with the Vortech is NOT a vafc. A vafc is a totally different item that some owners buy to further tune their cars. And since you did not say that you are showing a "Check Engine Light", I'm assuming that you have the correct box.
Look here:

On page 31 and 32, are the complete wiring schematics for the computer box.
