I had this, when I put my Xede back in, and my cat-back on, I took 10% off across the board (except the 10% load row) to get the EGT's down (they were hitting 940C when it was holding 1.6 bar). Now my boost is a little low I think, but at least I am staying under 900C for EGT's

My EGTs haven't ever reached 900 C (1652F). I average 1300F and go up to 1550F under WOT.

This is on a 4th gear pull from about 2500rpm to 7000rpm.

Could be the location of the probe, I have mine in the #2 cyl about 4" from the block. Or it could be that my car has issues!

I'm not convinced that I'm not leaking boost, and an MR DV is the next thing on my list.
