I did have a fuel issue due to hi G loads
Even with 1/2 of a tank due to the full TEIN Super Racing circuit suspension among other changes to the car the amount of G's the car is capable was starving the fuel pump; time for a fuel cell with a baffled tank.
My previous setup was pushing 1.2G.

820C (1508F) and was for the most part constant (within 10C)
NA I ran in the 850C range after a repeats of long hill pulls at about 32% grade. 1/2 to 3/4 mile long at 100% throttle.
Mark, are you using the PLX egt sensor? Where is it mounted (I assume you drilled a bung into your stock or aftermarket header)? How many miles on it? I asked because my second PLX EGT sensor broke and the turbo was only on the car for only 3500 miles!
DEFI EGT probe
Located about 1" from the final merge collecter on the header.
This gives an average temp across all 4 cylinders.
Header is wrapped extensively with 2 layers of Thermotech.
My EGTs are slightly higher since A/F are in the 12.1 area instead of 11.5-11.8 (typical turbo) and even richer for the Greddy turbo. So EGTs form those turbo kits to this setup in not entirely apples to apples.
Need to re look at the in car telemetry/data logs to get the Oil/Water temps.
Its at the shop So I will look tomorrow and let you know.
Note I am only running 1.5 deg of retard at 6.5 psi since Intake temps are only about 10-15 deg F above ambient due to such an efficient intercooler.
This is a little bit more aggressive timing then will be included in the base line tune despite not having any problems with it at -1.5 deg.
