calling all pfc experts

Ok. I just added my pfc and a greddy SMIC. Previously I was able to get 12+ psi with my stock IC and stock ECU.

Now with the PFC and greddy I can't get more than 10psi / .7bar.

I've eliminated the likelihood of a boost leak through the IC couplers/etc. And I've now upped my boost settings to .90 .90 w/ duty rating of .66 and .84 to no avail. The weather is low 40's and I am not exceeding 80% injector rating...

Is it possible that the fuel and timing settings are not optimal for my car and keeping the boost down??????

My car has a highflow cat, greddy smic, 2 piece IC kit, pfc, dp, and cb exhaust. (keep in mind I was able to boost above 12 psi with the stock ic and ecu + the boost is not leaking from my the IC install)

PLEASE HELP!!!

You can't get above 10psi based on your boost gauge reading or your max PFC boost reading?

What do you see on the boost gauge when you do the standard boost test?

Is this an old question? I certainly haven't found something helpful while searching......
