Need Help from TBI Tuners in Houston...

Any TBI guru/tuners in Houston?
I have a friend that may need some help burning chips.
He's in the process of turbo charging his 350 TBI truck.
I sold him the Holley 670cfm for $50.
He's going to try and get everything setup, TBI/intake/turbo.
Then he may need some tuning.
He said he bought a stage 5 chip, but I told him, he should of just saved his money and had someone custom tune a chip.

If you are in Houston and you know your shizzle (stuff), let me know.

its going to be more of a issue that just burning a chip, i really think his best bet is going ot be to use a vortec superFMU that way he can fine tune the FP curve under boost.

converting to the 749 ECU might be another option to keep open.

Do you have a link to the Vortec Super FMU?

Converting to the 749 he can keep his original TBI?

the 749 should be able to drive the injectors, a search in the DIY board for TBI and 749 will yeald the information you need, i don't completely understand that swap myself, grumpy seems to be the expert on that (what isn't he the expert on )
