software, Magnecor Wires, IK20's, K&N filters & I make
295rwhp & 309rwtq which equates to 357HP & 374TQ
There's one particular car that really has my attention, he has
his C32 in a drifting stance in his signature, makes 317rwhp &
327rwtq on ASP pullies and Renntech software, I forgot his
screen name for the moment, it's too early for me to be thinking
in the morning.

I guess you'll be on the list for a LET pulley if it makes the right numbers.

I hate to say it, but it looks like you are having the same issue as me. Take a look at your graph from Lujan. At 4800 RPM you can see that the car is holding power back.

members here in South FL with Renntech C32's. I want to see
the data log my CarChip Pro to scan it. Jerry said my car makes
more boost than his with the LET pulley kit, so I want to see
that first hand and then I'll go from there.
Honson? Donn? Where are you guys?

At 4400 RPM something happened and your car continues to pull power to red line. I bet your car is pulling timing to the tune of -21 to -30.
We both have the IK-20 plugs, magnecor wires, and Renntech tuning.

Update
I took my car to P&L Motorsports for another leak down test. Before they even did the test, they called my to tell me that my spark plugs are gapped beyond their measuring tool. That means that my plugs were gapped above 45. There were detonation marks on them so I decided to run to autozone and they happen to have 12 IK-20's in stock.
P&L regapped the plugs to 32 and the car runs much better. The shift from 1st to 2nd is very noticeable now.
The leak down test results were:
155 PSI across the board on the left bank.
165 PSI across the board on the right bank.
Less than 10% leakage across the board.
These numbers are perfect...which kind of makes me mad. This means that we have to look elsewhere.
Erick and I both have Dyno appts on Friday, so expect graphs then.

I just installed my IK20s and just hand tightened them, then did a 1/2 turn with the wrench.

i just finished re-gapping the plugs to .032...i can't believe that i did not check these before i put them in the car, it is not like me to make a mistake like this...
when i checked the gap before i re-gapped them, they were all at .043-4...ouch!
