What rec# are you having this problem in the .uni file? At WOT everything looks alright for the most part but whats it feel like? The motor appears to be stalling out just slightly in the upper RPM but thats the only thing that jumps out at me.

Problem fixed....

I had a dead coil in my Delteq system and 2&3 were not firing. The car feels a 'bit' faster now.

Re: LE2 383 WAY down on power (log inside)

Well it came down to the fact that I knew it was an ignition miss because of how it felt. The shake was violent enough to make the mirrors vibrate as they do in a car with a huge system in it. That was a bit confusing because an ignition miss isn't normally that bad, but mine was. So I pulled all of the plugs, and the #2&3 were looking brand new as if never fired whereas the other 6 looked more normal. The only two things that are common to those two cylinders are the Delteq coil base and the coil itself. So I removed all of the coils and noticed there was a significant rattle in the #2&3 coilpack, so I replaced it, threw in a new set of plugs and there went my problem.

Since I originally ordered my Delteq from Elitesparkplugs.com I contacted them, they warrantied the old one.

Re: LE2 383 WAY down on power (log inside)

Low and behold I did a spark test on my car and in fact my 2-3 coil was not firing....I had a buddy let me borrow one of his coils and it turns out that its not the coil , its gotta be the module the best I can diagnose, I believe I posted earlier that there were 2 plugs that were soaked with fuel from not firing it ws those 2....Not sure that would be warrantied or not guess I need to call him.....

As long as you are within the original warranty period and contact the retailer you purchased from, I am sure they will give you no issues on replacement. Get ready to ship it out and wait for them to test it though (pretty standard warranty replacement stuff).
