TPI chip tuning

Ok so I just had my wide band o2 installed and I was trying to get my fuel dialed it.. only to find out no matter how low or high I got my fuel pressure it still hung 11-11.5 afr and it won't change from there. I already have a chip from John Wayne and so far I love it the car runs really strong best by but Dyno is around 46-48 lbs (I have the Holly afpr).. there is nothing wrong with my car at all just runs too rich at wot. If he's not willing to assist me in my tune to get it dialed it I'll be looking for a new tune. I have 4 chips from him so I can do mail check the tune and rotate the chips until I get her dialed in.. is there anyone willing to help or can guide me to someone that is really good at tuning and can help? I figure it's in the tune. She holds pressure no prevlem so I know my injectors are not leaking. I can post up mods if need be. (I know the tuner will need a list).

I see Scott Hansen chips but has anyone ever gone to them?

What would it do if I advanced my timing a little?
Thank you.....

I'm not complaining it's an awesome chip... Infact he's working with me on this right now.. great guy. And yes the tune is awesome.. runs good just noticed a couple of things with the wide band but he's working on it.😀
