Question Should i still dyno my car??

Hey i just wanted your opinions on this. This comming saturday i have the option to take my car up for a dyno day for a good price. My only concern is that my car has 2 problems. 1. It has developed a really bad histation problem that only occurs during hard acceleration. And 2. my car has major boost creep check my sig

So should i still take it??
Lemmie know what you think

No Kidding! If you're running 15psi, I hope you have a front mount intercoooler, fuel, and some gauges! If not, your car's about to pop!

yeah that sounds really out of the ordinary, that you're hitting 15 in 2nd gear. Most usually don't even get up to stock boost in 2nd gear.
