boosting weird?

After racing an srt4 and winning i might add. i was driving home and messing around, i noticed my car didnt pull the same. i noticed my boost gauge and stock tune, my boost usually spiked 20lbs at 5000rpm. but now the boost stays constant at 15lbs. im wondering if something is wrong, but the cel never came on and hasnt yet. any suggestions would help.

sure you didn't accidently push your cruise button? Not sure what infini boost tune is, but i have a canned tune from trifecta that boost 22psi with just upper injen ic piping. makes me wonder if getting catless dp and k&N worth it.

Sounds like a boost leak. Do a boost leak test.

yup deff the first thing to try. first check your hot side IC piping at turbo and IC. that usually blows off, easy and can leak.
