No, that won't hurt. If your losing sleep over it, go ahead and turn it down 1psi. Better safe than sorry.

Get a Tactrix cable for $90 and their Logging Software for $20. Then go out and do a log. Look at the results and you'll know. Keep in mind that it has been butt-cold lately and because of that you will see higher boost as a result. When the weather warms up you'll probably drop by a 1 or 2 psi. Scott is definitely one of the top 10 in the country for tuning Evos, so you should be just fine.

The only reason your spiking to 25psi is the past couple month in socal the weather is cold 30-40 degree in the morning and evening, but you might get the occasionally high 60 degree in the afternoon. MBC seen to fluctuate during weather changes so imo your safe. Like smoggy said when it's summer time your PSI will decrease.

Z-Ball,

Your car is fine. Listen to Scot Gray, not the internet.

Trust your tuner I have heard only good things about gray.
Have you done any night runs when the air is more dense if it doesn't spike beyond 25psi then ure ok

You can always contact Scot and RRE in the same way you got a hold of them to do the tuning I think :-) I think they can answer your questions and concerns best.
