Almost a the end of the line

I got my car retuned over Sunday...
Needed a pump gas readout. There's a sweet little power dip in there though, am I to assume that I'm about at the limit of what I can do with my wastegate?
lol I want to literally peak the stock turbo out without meth(yet).

You've done it! That's about all you'll get w/o switching to E85 or Alky injection. Great numbers!

nice power. It seems that the dip in the graph could be a timing/fuel issue(possible pulled timing/knock). More peak power is to be made with that dip, if there is none left to be made it could sure be smoothed out. Nice job!

Lol We tried a bit more timing... But I usually starts to knock,
not sure how much more timing we can give it on pump gas.

Also yeah, at 26psi.

eh...put it this way, the more boost the hotter everything will get. You said any more timing and the car will knock. If you add boost you will have to take away some timing. The stock turbo will taper harder and harder with the more boost. Getting that peak number may force you for some more modifications. Cams or Bigger Cams etc...

Touché, we'll figure something out, or try again when it's not
so humid out, play around and see what we can do

First, very nice power for 93!
Second, I have made more power every time I turned up peak boost on my ix turbo. I also have a pretty wild motor for how "small" my turbo is.
I jumped from 355whp 320wtq at 21psi peak with real safe timing/afr on 93, to 444whp 431wtq at 31psi peak on e85 with pretty a pretty hot tune for drag racing. But looking back on it, a tune I have for 29psi peak with almost identical timing and fuel, my car did 420whp and 418wtq, 24whp peak gain, and average ~15whp gain up to 8000rpm.
I'd say you have some good power left in that setup, some sort of high octane and 2-3psi more, you are over 400 for sure and easy mid-high 11s at the track. Dynojet numbers.

Hmm...
400+ seems a bit high for a stock Evo VIII turbo...
