Anyone want to tune me??

I'm getting sick of fighting this car, something is amiss, and me not being super familiar with HPT makes tuning this car hella difficult.
Mods are
TVS 3.1" pulley
60lb injectors
Front mount heat exchanger
Meth injection 80%meth 20% water, 10GPH nozzle
Return style fuel system
Walbro f/p 45psi static f/p
Custom 3" intake

04 Redline.. PM me prices or what not and we'll see what can happen

Too big of meth nozzle, 5gph will be enough. You want someone experienced w/ TVS tuning as well as return-style tuning. Just throwing that out there. Shop around for prices

I had a 5gph, couldn't get more than 14 degrees of timing out of it under WOT, made only 245whp with 16psi.. I didn't pay $1700 for stage 2 power..
Hence the reason why I am here..
Keep in mind this isn't a RIGHT now thing. I have a single pass manifold coming, and then if you need to travel we can work something out, OR I am more than capable of logging and emailing...

Sorry, if i sound pissed, this car has been nothing but a headache since day 1

Good start but the cat back is holding back some power. IMO

Get rid of the stock catback. May as well go 3" since you plan on TVS power. I have pulled 24* on a car w/ 2.8 and meth. 260'shp

Ahem... you've pulled 26* on my car with a 2.85 on an M62 and 5gph meth - 272whp

I'm currently @ 25* no problem on my tvs w/ 3.1" pulley and 5gph meth. I had it at 26* until last week week, but I would get an OCCASIONAL knock with it wat 26 (once every 4 or 5 pulls it would knock).

Is the exhaust really holding it back that much, you think? I was seeing some knock around 18 degrees the other day so I back it down some.. But I can't get my AFR to stay the same run to run either..

If that's the case, check for leaks in the intake side of the motor. Double check all gaskets (intake mani, s/c, tb). The stock catback is 2.25" at the axleback. So... your exhaust is bottle necked. That will cause some knock
