10bucks says your tune is very consertative.
Have you looked into tuning yourself?
A few degrees of timing and the AFR off some can make a huge diff. My turd of a truck ran low 8s in the 1/8th on 6psi and a 45 shot on a stock lq4.
Whats your AFR?

I haven't looked into tuning myself, I actually wish I would have just, instead of throwing the big $$ for a high performance mail order tune, buy EFI live or something and learn how to do it.. at least that way I could monitor what is going on. The AFR is usually around the low 12's

installed the new tune just now.. feels exactly the same pretty much. My 0-60mph even got worse by almost a second. It's INSANELY sluggish until boost kicks in, I mean you don't feel any g-forces or any force pushing you back into the seat
at WOT the ignition advance was in the 30 range. I don't know what that means maybe someone can shed some light on it?

lol I might be looking at the wrong thing or something.. I'll get a video of it and post it up while I go WOT and have the camera aimed at the gauges (showing AFR, boost and ignition advance)
