help, retune lose power

Are you positive that the ECU isn't trying to compensate for a lean condition? Which would explain the rich condition. Clearing the CEL may still require the car to run

All signs point to that not being the issue, but in the end it could be possible. Customer brought the car home to remove the bumper and inspect the intake so we did not take anything apart.

Just so we can put it out there, this car made 40hp over stock with its original tune, so after loosing 30 its currently about 10 over stock with the addition of the Takeda and AAM combo. (removed stock Y and Mid pipe, removed K&N intake)

We have never seen the addition of an exhaust harm these cars, so I would be VERY surprised if that was the case. The only variable that currently seems logical is the intake.
Merv and Dcocci like this.
