So your car has a tune, but you dont know if there is a tuner that works for it? And/or you feel a Predator will add HP your tuner missed?

I call shenanigans.
I would just edit your first post and be honest/realistic and let us help you actually get to 400hp
If your car is a 97. Heads, Cam and LS6 intake will get you there.

Trying to figure out the purpose in changing the stock injectors for what was done. The duty cycle of the stock ones SHOULDVE been fine.
