how many lbs of boost? what spark plugs ngk8's? try gapping them at more at .25 or .22 it could be blowing the spark out, or running to rich, thats my guess.
Can you post dyno and a/f graphs? If not, what a/f values were you seeing when he tuned it? Again, you can NOT ask us if it's too rich or too lean, there's no way we can know.
You've asked for help and given us nothing to go on.
If Tony is tuning your car then he is probalby tuning it conservativly so your a/f will be good. Are you running stock distributor and coil? Did you put a new cap and rotor in? you should be running ngk 8's and try gapping them to .20-.25
hmm i wonder if this is what my problem was? I last had my car tuned before i stored it last year. I had a misfire around 6500 and then again around 7300. My Dynos here http://preludeonline.com/showthread.php?t=191802 The misfire was consistant on mine as well. Ill have to start her up soon once im done with school for the semester to see if its still there.
