Me too man,what a different vibe i got from this guy,somone that actually cares!....and it helps he owns and races a 8 sec turbo foxbody at our local track!...lol
I searched the whole thread and did not see where it was ever said what injectors you used/have.
they are 42s,black ones from pro m

This is dyno sheet from the other place..."mopac"

This one was detonation=blown headgasket!

And this was where it was at before i took it to new guy...detonating and bucking,and hardly holding an idle....thats what $1000 plus $200 dyno time gets you

I am really kind of surprised that you're running out of injector.

It's pretty clear though, that the first place had no damned idea what they were doing.
That i know first hand!....

And ya me too....should have just got bigger ones to be safe,you can just program them to flow what you want right?

There exists, a max flow pulse-width for every injector. That means that there is a limit. When you increase volume, decrease pressure and vice versa. What your tuner is going to do is bump up the pressure a little bit to get closer to where max volume and max pressure intersect.

The injectors may have a bit more headroom left in them but you're also really close (probably into) where the stock fuel rail starts becoming an issue.

If you have enough fuel pump (I"m guessing 200L high pressure?) then I think you'll get there.

Thanks for input....ya i have a bbk high flow,forgot about fuel rails your right,never though id be close to that originally....lol....but we see what he tells me on mon,so far so good though im happy,if i need to make changes i will.

Thanks guys!.....Ok,so he called me back,said that he couldn't compensate for the injectors,so numbers are the same,told me that I'm fine as is as long as it stays below 5300,but if it was him to put in 60pound injectors and come back for a final tune.
but he says otherwise the car runs great!!,and I will be happy!!....he wants to take me for a rip first before we square up...lol

Am I actually going to feel what a sc feels like in my own car!!???!!,picking it up tomorrow!

Sweet! Man that's great to hear. Next you should add a wastegate, and more pulley. Let the gate hold you at say 10psi so full boost comes in lower in the rpms.
No more just yet man...as much as I enjoy wrenching on it,I just want to drive it this summer....lol....going to stick with the plan and just do rear discs,and get those torque box plates put in....then take a little break until the winter anyway...lol

But man all that work and I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel!
 
@TOOLOW91 ,@a91what ,@mikestang63 ,@Onefine88 and everyone else.....your not going to beleive this!
Went over my car with the guy,idled perfect,took me for a drive,the drivability was amazing,zero bucking,went through a few gears so smooth!...it was perfect!!!!!!!

Paid him,drove it for about 20min to bring it home,gave it some throttle,hit about 5psi,seemed good??..wanted to go find a nice quiet road to finally feel this thing....then???......wait a minute?.....why is my temp so high??....hmmm?....fans on???....wait?....rad cap is cold??.....WATER IN THE OIL!

Now,i know its not his fault?....and i was supposed to go back for a quick retune with bigger injectors and a 7psi pulley........f##########k!....but nowwwww,its back to lets see if intake gasket failed,but its most likley the head gasket of coarse!!!...best case!

That all i have to say right now im deflated again...
