big spike with Blitz I color

Hey guys,

I just installed cams and a intercooler with a bunch of bolt ons on the stock turbo and got it tuned from a local here..
But, the boost is spiking all the way to 28PSI down to 21....what should I do??? I have a EBC Blitz I-color installed for boost controlling and current I have it setup on:

SET 77
GAIN 5
Limiter 6

Boost cut was delay via ECU Flash but it did come last night which is bad...has anyone got any idea on what the best setting is for it??????

Those numbers are useless as every car is different and will respond a little differently. How much boost was your car originally tuned to run on? when you turn it down does the car respond to the changes?

Are you on stock turbo or bigger?
If you're spiking generally that means your gain is set too high or some other combination of the settings is causing the spike. Did you set it up according to Blitz' recommendations? I had Blitz SBC DC (great EBC) way back in '03 and it had vehicle-specific recommended settings in the manual. Did you read/follow those? One time I accidentally turned the gain WAY too high, and it spiked to double intended boost. Luckily my engine was fine.

Im on the stock turbo,

Gain is set at 8, surely that cant be high....blitz manual said to set it around 15-25 for the stock turbo...i tried that too but no luck...any other advice?
