Shop is saying the extension harness from Edelbrock is no good and needs to be replaced, and/or the throttle body itself. Edelbrock is sending a replacement harness; we'll see what happens.

Hey guys, I recently installed: JDL header, JDL over pipe, 3.00" supercharger pulley, Deatschwerks 700cc fuel injectors, and was tuned by Zach @ Delicious Tuning.
I hooked up my car to my local shops dyno and to my disbelief, I LOST 20hp all across the powerband. My car was fully tuned with no issues and now it says that I'm at 235whp vs the 257whp that I had before the install. Can anyone explain why there's a loss of power when everything done was proven by many others to increase power? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Same dyno and same weather.. let me post up the dyno sheets.
1st pic is the dyno from last year. The only performance/engine mode I had was the Edelbrock SC kit tuned by Delicious on 92 octane. Literally everything else was stock. 2nd pic is the dyno from today. Got the JDL EL header, JDL overpipe, 3.00" boost pulley, and DW 700cc FI. Minimal gains is one thing... But for me to apparently LOSE power compared to stock exhaust no FI and CARB pulley upgrade on a Delicious Tune is SILLY. I want to say that there was something wrong with the dyno. I absolutely feel faster than before.. but I need verification about what's going on. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Also in the 2nd pic, the blue line is a cross reference to the dyno from last year hence the claimed loss of near 20hp in most areas of the power band.

That torque graph is a bit funky. Seems something is up with their dyno.

I'm starting to think my shops dyno needs calibration. I'm 100% sure Zach made sure to tune the car as much as possible for optimum power:safety which should be much more than what was reported now. I'm trying a dynojet in a different shop later, but at the very least I know for various reasons I've improved compared to "Stock Edelbrock" power Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Please keep us updated. My car threw a p2135 about 4 times now over 4-6 months. I had the same issue. Limp mode, stopped car, turned off for 5 minutes and then car started no issue but gauge read p2135. Out of the state but taking it to the shop once I’m back. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

There seems to be a fuel leak from what I can tell after 1 week of having my kit installed. Today when I turned the car on it was shaky at start. At idle the car trebled and both the traction control and check engine lights were on. One more thing to note is that there was white smoke coming out of the exhaust or somewhere beneath the car. The reason I believe it's a fuel leak is because after the problem arose, I tried diagnosing it 20 minutes later (after having the car shut off) and the car would no longer turn on. This leads me to believe it is no longer able to get sufficient gas to turn on. Any ideas of what this can be other than a possible fuel leak? Could this have been caused by something improperly installed with the Edelbrock kit? Please help.

Thanks Mike. I’m scheduled to have it towed to the shop Tuesday. Do you know if it’s normal for the car to go into limo mode if a fuel leak is present? Also, do you know if this happens with these kits commonly? I took it to a very reputable shop so not sure what could have happened if this isn’t an issue with the kit itself. The car is like new in the sense that it’s never been modified, 2016 BRZ.
