Fi but na power
My mods
are basically 05 350z stock motor
single turbonetics kit
1/2 inch spacer
Single exhaust
z1 flywheel and xtd stage 4 clutch
750cc injectors 255lph fuel pump
So basically something is mechanically wrong. My tuner tunes my car, puts it at a base tune to a previous single turbo kit from another car and fully tunes I make 260whp. Once he puts a base na 350z tune I made 315 whp. He advanced timing but only enough to still be safe. It made 360 hp. From my understanding you are supposed to retard timing not advance it, he is a reputable tuner so tune is out of the question. I've been running the car hard since last October and it hasn't blew up. The compression is good and only check engine light is for O2 sensors. I need help I've been thinking maybe go back to stock flywheel, but that's the only thing I think can help. Also I believe my tuner said something about 10degrees are missing or untunable.

Also, your grammar is atrocious.

750cc injectors,lines and 255lph fuel pump not over bored, it obviously was a typo, 8lbs of boost tapering to 7.5

"10 degrees missing"
"tuned like its na"
but...
"he is a reputable tuner so tune is out of the question"
LOL.
If you don't have a dynosheet with AFRs and boost, you are out of luck trying to get an Internet fix. Better yet, what did your reputable tuner have to say?

His tuner said " pay me a few more hunnets and I get dat three fiddy running like an na because I enjoy tuning turbo cars to run no better then an na..." 360hp is a conservative tune for reliability with out pushing block
No dyno sheet they should shutdown this thread before it catches on fire with flaming.

Basically he says something mechanical is wrong with the car, because on a base tune from another single turbo z should of produced way more power. More than 260 obviously. From what I understood he said for fi you don't normally add timing you retard it. And I just asked him about what my afr was because its not on the dyno sheet

I'm not a tuner but The way it's supposed to be tuned it won't make power, but with a more na like tune it will make power, Dynocomp in Phoenix, Xactdyno and Evan from Es tuned all had the same tuning issues

You will make more power running it leaner. You will make more power advancing timing up to mean best timing. You will detonate (knock) if you run too lean and if you try to reach MBT depending on a number of factors (namely fuel, heat and peak cylinder pressures).
If you can afford it, send the car to Dynosty in KY to get sorted out.
