For sure. Your tuner may have been very conservative? Do you have a meth. kit? Is your setup on an A6 or M6?

Yea 12 psi is kind of ridiculous. I wouldn't call that a conservative tune by any means.

700 through an A6 is a pretty tall order for a TVS2300. That may be a little unrealistic without backing up a Brinks truck and dumping a bunch more money into your car.

With your mods and boost level, I would have thought you'd have seen more than 575rwhp. Could be a soft tune or it could be as simple as a stingy dyno. Also, if they diked around and heated things up nice and warm before the dyno pull, you won't see good numbers.

Numbers are too low for 12 psi. I make that plus sum on 6 psi, with a cam and meth.

Im hoping more people chime in here so i start looking in the right direction
Assuming everything was installed correctly. It could be a extremely soft tune, which make no sense because your engine is forged.

I would look at some kind of install problem: maybe vacuum leak.

Try another dyno. The one your using might just be way off in calibration.

He means that your car maybe have a safe tune looking @ #'s with 12psi .

I understand the boost because of the small pulley. This thing shoots up the RPM's very fast when im on the throttle. Gotta have the smaller pulley to get the boost up because of the Long tubes and the deleted cats. From what ive been reading i must run a smaller pulley, due to lost back-pressure to get the boost back up.

Am i reading that correctly?

Something is wrong.

Here is a TVS pulley/boost chart:
3.60" pulley: expect 2.0 psi. more boost over stock pulley -Total boost 8.0 psi
- 3.40" pulley: expect 4.0 psi. more boost over stock pulley -Total boost 10.0 psi
- 3.20" pulley: expect 6.0 psi. more boost over stock pulley -Total boost 12.0 psi
- 3.10" pulley: expect 7.0 psi. more boost over stock pulley -Total boost 13.0 psi
- 3.00" pulley: expect 8.0 psi. more boost over stock pulley -Total boost 14.0 psi
- 2.90" pulley: expect 9.0 psi. more boost over stock pulley -Total boost 15.0 psi
- 2.80" pulley: expect 10.0 psi. more boost over stock pulley -Total boost 16.0 psi
- 2.70" pulley: expect 11.0 psi. more boost over stock pulley -Total boost 17.0 psi

There might be a 1-2 psi drop from the long-tubes. You need to get that thing checked out by another tuner.
