hi guys first time on the forum, i just fitted a CAPA supercharger kit, got car running really well, downloaded custom tune off flash tuner, was running the blower in done 60kms and car just died and stopped, the car isnt gettin power to fuel pump and wont crank over, there are no blown fuses or anything, i cant hear the relay clicking, it seems like its a problem with the key and/or immobiliser. any help would be much appreciated

If there isn't any blown fuses or anything you could try reloading the tune into it again? be careful without a custom tune!

what you mean be careful without a custom tune, CAPA did custom tune the flash tuner, could a custom tune have done somethin to the computer?

if it's not done correctly yes.
But its more likely to have reared it's head as soon as you tried to start it.
As a test try reverting back to the stock calibration.

yeh, it seems to have downloaded the flash tune properly, i had drove the car for 60kms before it stopped(car ran really well), i did try to return the settings to stock thru the flash tuner and it did say it failed. that made me think the connection back to the ecu has a problem,

Sounds more like a flash tuner problem or incorrect flash procedure. Can you double check and try again?
If it is indeed a connection problem within the vehicle you may have a CAN bus problem which can certainly cause a no-start condition. Unfortunately it's very likely the flash tuner has caused this. Can you verify the calibration they gave you is matched to your PCM?
