What happened?
Go to the track for the first time in the Evo (not the first time ever). Track was terrible, bumps/dips middle of track, no traction. After launching I just got wheelspin.
60Ft- 2.1
Et- 14.0
MPH- 96
Mods are:
K&N cone
Mail In Dynoflash
Catback
What should I be running? I am tempted to go to my "normal" track to rerun. The clutch is still good, lauches were perfect (other than wheelspin) with the help from the launch control. I was shifting about 7000-7200 because I know power tends to drop off there in Evos.
Any thoughts/comments appreciated.

For the record I didn't even attempt the "no lift shifting" I'm sure it would help my times.....but I am on the stock clutch.

Something has got to be wrong with your tune or lack there of. Did you get tuned for the intake or not? That could be hurting you.
I know it's not JUST driver because assuming best case scenerio, he cuts 1.7 60' and shifts in a normal fashion, that would still be a stock time car. With those mods you should be in the 12's.
These times could only indicated:
A. Missed shifting into multiple gears + horrible 60' + very slow pedal modulation.
OR
B. Car is running horribly.

Well here is the deal....I wasn't at the normal track I run at. I have a buddy who ran over at this same track, same day: 15.4 at 88 mph. 3 days later he runs at our normal track, nothing different: 14.9 at 91 mph.
I think I need to run at my normal track before coming to any conclusions.
As far as boost leaks I am where I am supposed to be 19 psi peaking at 20.
I will update this when I get to the track.

What happens is the turbo has to work harder to overcome these leaks and still maintain your desired boost. So, in your case, you could be SEEING 20psi on your boost gauge, but the turbo may be pushing 24-25psi to overcome the leak(s) just to keep it there. Working harder means blowing hot air and making less power.
