i am sure James did a safe tune ... and check your dyno graph paper to make sure the A/f's are the same ... some times the wides bands can be off some what ... if they are the same I would tell him what a/f to tune for ... talk to james and i am sure he will take care of you
James didn't tune the car. It was one of his employee, which did a good job but spoke to me like if I knew everything... A good guy but seemed like he had a bad day that day, which we all encounter those types of days.
Here's my list of MODS:
-8.8:1 Ross Pistons
-Billet Crower Rods
-625cc injectors
-aeromotive fuel regulator (pressure set at 20)
-SAFC
-PLX M-300 Wideband
-Turbo-Back Exhaust
-EGT, Oil pressure Gauge, and Boost
-20G Turbo @ 16lbs of boost
-msd spark plug wires/ngk spark plugs
Plans: I want to boost at 20 and get a 350hp result... right now i'm getting 284.5 at the wheels.. He tried tunning it for more boost i guess the radiator couldn't handle it.
Here's the thing... When i first put in my turbo kit with factory internals and everything else factory my car had 215hpw. And it felt it had more power than what i have now.
Problems:
1. car runs rich ( which i know it's better than lean) but it smells like gas everywhere i go.
2. cruising speed in 2nd and 3rd needs to be tuned better. (it bogs a little)
5th Gear is where i get my best result... When i'm in cruising speed in 5th gear, then i floor it, it picks up great! But at any other gear, it doesn't.
