bad tune??

Hey guys just have a question for you guys, I took my car out to the track after my flash from TT and Ran a 12.7 at 107 with a 1.84 60ft. My mods are in my sig. My question is everyone with a flash either TT or Dynoflash is trapping 111 to 113 with the mods i have. My boost guage shows 21 peak and 17 or so when tappering. So i dont think i have a boost leak anywhere. Is it possible that i have a bad tune? i dont know the altitude here at my track or anyting but could that make up for around 5 moh it was proabbly around 75 degrees outside also. thanks alot

Matt

It is possible that you could have a boost leak. You can still hit 21 psi even with a leak, but your turbo will be blowing alot of hot air, since its trying to hold that much boost. Just do a boost leak test so that you can be sure.

keep in mind a guage is not very accurate. It is probably showing 2-3psi more than your actually running.

Have you messed with yoru boost controller since TT tuned it? Also I would def go back and check for a leak, even if nothing more than to 100% rule it out.

it could also be the weather. its been hot and humid out, two things a turbo car hates. the car feels flat and def makes less power.
