I do have to say Mark at TT smoothed everything out when he flashed/tuned the car. Maybe I just drive to hard.

How come TT was only able to get you to 295whp? There is a guy by the name of sleet, and in his sig, he has a 3"Buschur turboback exhaust, MBC set at 21 psi, Walbro pump, HKS intake, and a TT flash. He basically has the same mods as you so, but he puts more power to the ground. 315whp to be exact

Big things to consider are what type of dyno, weather conditions, gas, etc. Might not be, but if it was on a dynojet...there ya go. Mine was on a Mustang, which reads way lower than dynojet. If it was also on a mustang dyno, rack another point up that all EVO's are different.

True, but both of you were both tuned by TT. So dyno's were the same and most likely gas, but I will take your weather theory. You probably got tuned at different times.
