Load went nuts!

So after doing a few pulls in my car.
BR3065 supporting mods etc.


It is logging 2byte Load, and load looked fine.

Car runs 24psi on pump gas

Peak load has been around 295....

Load is not like a stock turbo and fluctuates everywhere. As RPM's increase load has been going up till red line.

For example: 240, 245, 250, 260, 270,275, 278, 280. 280, 285, 286, 287, 290, 295, 297 End Rpms.

Then all of a sudden, after a few adjustments, the car started to read crazy load. 310, 320 ,324, 320, 328 329.....

And obviously by reading these crazy load values, my tune is completely off. It's reading timing where I didn't even touch.
I don't know what would cause this. Any suggestions?

That's what I was shooting for, or a slipping clutch.

Chris could it have anything to do with rescaling the "x" axis for High Octane.

I did notice this also happened after I entered a 290 value to my table. It was reading 260-280-300 before.....
But I made sure to do it correctly, and I believe this started after.....

I'm going to disconnect the wastegate and run WG pressure 15psi. If it's reading over 300 load still should I start assuming it's a MAF issue?

Yes. There are 7 bolts in which you can "clock" the turbo for whatever position you want it to be. I was missing 1 bolt, and air pissed out of it.
