Edelbrock Supercharger Install - Will not start, Cranks forever. I'm out of ideas.
 

So a quick summary-

Car is a 2015 FR-S (AT)

Relevant Mods installed
- Edelbrock Supercharger
- Delicious Tuning Flex Fuel kit w/Edelbrock Dbox
- UEL Header

- Currently running w/stock injectors and fuel pump. (ID1050x injectors wouldn't fit without spacers and no point installing my fuel pump without the injectors.)
- Fuel pressure in the lines leading up to the fuel rails.
- Checked relevant fuses in the underhood fuse box, couldn't find anything blown.
- I've checked all my harnesses as best I know.
- Everything else turns on and works in the car, battery is good.


Any help would be appreciated.

I'll do that, thanks.

I'd suggest you check all the grounds on any lines or boxes that have to do with anything electrical that has anything to do with any of the computer parts that have anything to do with spark or fuel delivery.

Yep, thar ya have it ...... :D

PS - do you live between Cincinnati and Dayton .......??

I do live right there! Haha why do you ask?

That seems to be the feedback I'm getting all around for the most part, that and map sensors/tune.

With the grounds i really don't know what I'm looking for. Electrical knowledge is my weakest "skill" and my more experienced helper isn't available for a few months now.

I was born and raised near Blanchester ...... not far from Wilmington ...... do you live close to those towns?

You can check to see if a wire/unit is grounded using a hand held meter.

Bubba does it by loosening up wires/stuff that should be grounded and then tightening them back down. Sometimes he will remove a thing, sand on it, then re-attach it. Sometimes, he just pounds on stuff......:D

Nice, I was born and raised in South Dayton around Kettering. I live over near Monroe now. I've been to Wilmington a few times too.

I'd just about love to beat it with a hammer at this point lol

Is the tune expecting the bigger injectors? If the tune has the injector scale set for the bigger ones then you're not getting the right fueling by running the stock ones.

^^^what he said. Also not sure why you would need spacers for the ID1050X's. The one's for the BRZ are designed specifically for the FA20 and do not need spacers. (I have the 1050x's on my car) They do require an adapter for the harness or re-pinning however.

Oh, yes, Monroe ...... over by Lebanon. Back in the 50s, my HS buddies and I would go over to the Lebanon roller rink ..... to meet girls ....... if we couldn't find any at our respective family reunions ...... :sigh:

This one night we were over there and had a minor accident in the parking lot. About a half dozen of the local boys started getting all out of hand, so we took off (because we were all too young to have a driver's license), before the sheriff arrived.

Yep, we roared out of town in a 1937 Chevrolet sedan, painted white, with red rims and chrome baby moon center hubcaps. We kept the lights off (in stealth mode), till we reached the county line.

Got back to Clinton County, pulled his car into his father's paint shop, did some body work, re-sprayed the front ....... and called it an adventure.

NO .....NO .....NO ....... DON'T beat it with a BFH ........ just use a small one and tap it side to side.

Well, anyway, I hope you get it figured out......:thumbsup:


humfrz

Yep, I reckon you're right ........ :sigh:

Slow day in Puyallup ....... :iono:
