I did ok for my first time out, only did 4 passes (well... 3, one was more of a burnout, LOL). Street tires all night with 35psi in them, didn't plan to run it hard, but you know how that works. Was running like crap, tune is all over the place, also having a problem with boost creep (7lb spring in the wastegate, was seeing 12lbs). Need to get it over to Tom Wong to have him iron this thing out. I think with my slicks it would've been in the mid-high 12's. Only had about 10-12 degrees of timing in it, and the tune was fighting me all night.

60- 2.246
1/8- 8.693
mph- 86.81
1/4- 13.270
mph- 104.80

Is your wastegate spring too weak or is the wastegate just too small to bleed that much exhaust at the lower boost levels? My 92 Talon had boost creep really bad, and even blew the headgasket because of it. Even at 15psi it would creep, then I ported the wastegate and solved all the issues. After porting she'd hold down to 10psi pretty steadily even in 4th gear going uphill, course I never ran that little amount of boost lol...
