AAARRGGG! That deserves looking at I guess. I wiggled/twisted/thumped- on/contorted, and otherwise moved that relay all over the place with no affect. Then she decides to start working. I guess I could fork over the $big bucks$ and buy a new relay, then find myself stranded once again with new relay in hand. I hate intermittent electrical things and won't sleep at night or drive with confidence until I conclusively find the issue.
I'm thinking of bypassing that high dollar relay in favor of a standard $14 unit, with the ground side wired into the overboost sensor so at least it will shut off the gas on overboost, and wire in a shock sensor at the main pump fuse up front to shut it all off in the event of a crash (I think 930Rocket did the same after frustration took it's toll).
