Default nate is a tuning genius

so i went for a dyno tune today at fresno performance. was shooting the magical 400...
when i get there i talk to nate for a few. and he says 350 would be a good place to be with what i had and their "heartbreaker" dyno as he says..... well after hours of tuning with no ground gained.. the super tuner he is figured out that the injectors i had bought from a very well know and popular shop.. ( not saying names until i work this issue out..) did not match at all...
i orders some 37 lbers and the ones i got had 5 yes 5 injectors that were rated at the STOCK flow rate.. and only 3 at the 37 lb rate i had ordered.. the only difference was the part numbers two numbers in the pn were switched...

any way huge thumbs up to nate great guy and very persistent he diff earned his pay check today.. car runs great.. huge thanks to him and fresno performance thnks nate for your skills and great detective work... we would have never figured that out..
wasnt able to get the 400 (383/356) but im knocking that door down like a swat team soon!! see you soon fresno performance! Nate= tuning genius

I don't know, but if I put down ~380whp with heads and cam I would be pissed.

But, if you run some good track times then **** it lol.

It's the injector's fault.

so someone sold you a bad set of injectors? that's lame, hopefully you get your money back. when are you going back on the dyno with your new stuff?

YA i locked it once at the end of the day,it was well heat soaked by that time after the two hours of dicking with it and finding the bad injectors.


And to krazy4 please please bring a 400whp car to my dyno with your dyno print out in hand,I bet the heartbreaker will knock 50whp off your numbers.

PEOPLE ITS A TUNING TOOL NOTHING MORE.



Track tells all,and his car runs fantastic,perfect crisp drivabilty,mileage,no knock count and threw a stock air box and stock exhaust.I drove the car and it pulls very very hard.One of the better running small head decent cam cars.
