All my shots on my roll of SFX 200 Infrared are equally overexposed and look like this.
I had the ISO set 200 and was shooting aperture and shutter accordingly.
My equipment:
Nikon Nikkormat FT ( Lightmeter was dead for these so I used an app)
Hoya 25a Red
Rotating Polarizing Lens rotated to where the sky was darkest.
Here's one I digitally rebalanced. They're supposed to be very dark due to the nature of the film.
This is my ideal exposure.
How much should I adjust exposure?
A few more for reference

These are all after being digitally remastered. All of the scans are overexposed like the first picture posted.

this is negative film? you mean underexposed?
your highlights look normal but the shadows are empty
did you make sure to compensate for the red filter? that's going to reduce the amount of light reaching the film by quite a bit
I think you mean underexposed, by a lot. You do know that you're supposed to compensate several stops for using a red filter plus a polarizer, right?
sfx is not sensitive enough to IR to use a 25A filter if youre looking for a pronounced IR effect. you need something like a hoya R72.

By how many stops you digitally adjusted it? That's your answer.

You put a red filter on ir film? Holy fuck anon, top keks.
Just to go over this, you used film that's only sensitive towards and off the end of the red end of the spectrum, and you put on a filter that makes everything red. And then you come in here surprised at the lack of contrast.
And let me guess, you didn't dial in +4 to account for the filters, and didn't consider repricoscity
