Default Money Maker = $$$$$$$$$$

Well after installing my Money maker setup that was bought from Nitrous Dave and the FJO i went to the dyno last night. I have a forged 346LS1 with stage 2 heads and a mile lil old cam. 224tr. Well went to the dyno to do some tune and well,,,,, not good. Made good power with the kit 445rwhp and 427 trq. on a mustang dyno. Well after the 2nd run my plugs for 7 and 8 were done for. So i have been driving on the plugs for about 8k but have not sprayed. SO we put in new plugs TR6s and went at it again. On a 150 shot using the pills ND told me to use and same thing. 2 runs and the back header was glowing red. No matter what i asked from on the injectors i could not cool the rear cly down. I do have 38lbs injector and the 255 fuel pump with new filter. Well this time we pilled it for a 100 shot. still great power but once again 7-8 missfire. after the 2nd run. Well now i have a engine tap and still have a misfire. It seem the tip of the plug has falling off and is in the engine somewhere.. I must say ever time i call Nitrous Dave him and his employess are great and always call back, i am very impressed with them. But something is just not right here. No matter what i do i cannot get the AF below 12.3a/f. i only had my timing set at 22degrees and comand injector for 12.5/1 and still staying around 12.3 when spraying. Any more fuel and i cant run NA. Bottle pressure was about 980-950. So any help here would be great. i hope i gave enough info to help out.

Did you try upping your fuel jet, or decreasing your nitrous jet.

Thanks for the phone call this morning. Im sorry to here about the problems. Im pretty sure it is a tuning error. The air fuel is to lean. The correct way of correcting the air fuel for nitrous is by uping the fuel jet and get your air fuel to about 11.8. Let me know how it goes. Thanks for the compliments.
