Default Do I need to find another tuner??

I went from a full bolt on ls1 to a lq4, h/c/I full bolt on. I changed to an 85mm MAF as well. I'm having an issue getting it to idle when its cold and I get a p0103 code at WOT. My tuner is saying that the maf tables should be the same as the 78mm and don't need to be changed.

Not to mention, he has taken over a week to get to this point. And... I have a weird shift under light throttle that goes 1-2-4-3-4. He also can't seem to change that either. It's not the trans, I've already singled that out. Any ideas?

If you are asking then most likely. You should have 150% faith and trust in your mechanic/tuner.

Cool. Well I went this past Sunday and got my car and my money back. He didn't do anything to it. The gas gauge hadn't even moved. O well his loss. Thanks for the replies.

yep you were smart to pick up your marbles/car and run, I suggest you drive easy /if any as you do not know/what if any part tuneing he may have done
very easy to damage a good car with a part/bad tune
