what map sensor you are using...if youre using the stock one it can only read up to 11 lb i believe...swap it out with a 3 bar gm one and you should be ok

it was tuned at 10psi and i havent got it tuned on 15 cause of the cutting out problem. Im ordering a omni power 3 bar map sensor today though so hopefully that will fix it then ill get her tuned at 15

just so you know you cant run the new map untill the car is tuned for it. I would also bet the tuner set a boost cut to keep your motor safe from spikes or noobs tying to up the boost :p
