I haven't driven the car much cause I am waiting on dbox to get here and finish tune. Probably next week the car does feel much more powerful though! I'm very happy with my purchase |

Got the D-box installed today, simple 10 minute job.
Fuel trims sorted out by Zach at Delicious, now to get my dropping IAM ironed out and then the tune will be awesome. IAM dropped to 0.35 last week on Costco gas, tried Mobil and the IAM stayed at 1.00 for a tankful before dropping to 0.64. Going to burn through this tank and try some Torco Accelerator to see if that makes a difference. |

So I probably found the source of my leak. Of course it's the intake manifold gasket. When placing the supercharger on you have to be very careful, I thought I was but I think it got hung up a little on one of the AC lines.
Also a question. Should the line that goes from the back of the supercharger to the bypass valve be hose clamped? It comes already installed with no clamps. I'm not sure if it's at risk of blowing off at all? I did put zip ties on it just in case. |

Just did my first track day at Thunderhill today, the car ran great and was able to keep up and get ahead of most of the field (mostly WRX's and STI's). While I was there they had a mobile dynojet, so I figured I'd hop on between sessions.
The peak power is about where I was expecting, but theres definitely something wrong with the CARB tune from Edelbrock, looks like it's pulling timing I think. 91 octane, engine is stock other than the Edelbrock S/C and a JR dual radiator/oil cooler. |

My hesitation/bucking occurs in the morning and afternoon - doesn't seem to make a difference. Happens when the engine is cold or hot. I'm hoping that more folk get logs to edelbrock that capture the issue.

well, installed it this past weekend. Instruction were slightly off in a few spots, nothing major just different bolt sizes then listed. One trip to the hardware store for two bolts that were not in the kit or listed in my parts list even though the instructions said there were provided. wish it wasn't winter so i could go data log it and get the tune tweaked.

Edelbrock responded after seeing my latest logs and said
noticed the rpm fluctuation seemed to follow a sudden ramp in exhaust cam timing at a specific range in engine load They've sent over a modified EOv3 calibration file for my to try and log. I'll get to it once the snow melts. They have no idea right now why I'm returning 5-6 mpg less than most other people on 91 octane. |

Anyone running the D-box?
The engine sputters and shakes (like misfires) when first starting up for about 5 seconds before steadying. I noticed this on the very first startup after installation but I am able to replicate this by letting the car sit overnight or at least 8-10 hours. The D-box has the latest firmware as the previous owner sent it to Delicious directly. If this is normal, then I'm going to remove the D-box entirely. |
