Looking for those guys, as I'm very close to them but have a problem. I put 80lb injectors in my turbo 3800 Fiero, but obviously the car can't start since the engine floods instantly. Just wondering if I could bring you my PCM and have you change the tables to suit the 80's... I could then drive the car over if you want to finish the tune. I sent you both PM's already but need an answer quick hence this post. Thanks! If you can't I think it would be killer to roll with you guys anyway. If anyone else has a tuner near A2 or can recommend a shop, lemme know!

Are you on the various Facebook Fiero fan pages? Both of them post there from time to time.

What injectors is your PCM programmed for? U maybe could run E85 if you have #65 injectors until you get a good tune. Also, removing the 80# and going back to what is programmed is an option too. You really don't want to run the engine hard until it is tuned properly anyway. Do you have a scanner ? Are you sure t is flooding?

It's programmed just for the stock 42.5 ones, I think that was the flow. I was planning on switching to e85 eventually that's why I went big with the 80's, but now I'm not yet ready for e85 I'd have to change some stuff in the fuel system. I only have a scanner to pull codes, read sensors etc... Not a tuner. And to top it off I sold the stock ones haha. I'm sure it's flooding, last time I tried to start it, it wasn't fireing so I open the throttle a tad, it sucked some air fired and blew a huge fire ball out the exhaust! I mean looking at the hole on the 80's. It's huge. I found a shop that can tune just the computer for me, so guess I will check them out. I'd rather hang out and give a fellow fiero guy my money of course.

If all you need is to change the IFR table or even a new base tune then give me a PM, I can help a Fiero brother out.
I've tuned a few 3800 Turbo cars and many, many SC ones too.
