Limp mode, dont know why

My car just went into limp mode and I dont know why. And every time i shift the transmission rattles like crazy when i push the clutch in. My car is also supercharged so that means no dealerships. What could this be? Is it still safe to drive my car?

yes there is a code, it's P0102. Dont know what that means but im going to call the dealership tomarrow morning and find out. I also took the car to the dealership just now and asked them if they can just figure out what the problem was and they told me they wouldnt even look at it because it was supercharged. So much for the stealership helping me out, they are worthless. And after I took it there my car overheated on the road and spilled all of the coolant out. I got it towed to my house, I dont know what im going to do about it now.

Casey that code is "Mass Air signal voltage low" I wouldn't even begin to know where to look for a cause since you have a SC. I might think that one of the wires to your MAF that were lengthened may have come loose. If your SC kit required them to be lengthened. I hope this helps.

Did you put your supercharger on or did a shop? If I shop did it, take it to them to fix.

Yes it was ashop that installed it. I'm going to have it towed there tomarrow morning to see if they can fix it. I'm hoping I didnt damage the internals from too much power.

Casey why be p8ssed at the dealer? Id be happy that they didnt take it in and screw it up more. Obviously they didnt have experience in fixing things with an S/C. Good luck on your fix.

Yes, I have the Whipple H/O kit at 10psi and it's making 456hp to the wheels. Other than that the only mods I have are suspension and wheels.
