most likely it's getting too much fuel at 4k. take it easy on the car til you get the good fuel management, especialy in 3rd-5th gear.

No fuel management?

I highly doubt you're running rich.

That's about the best way to blow a motor. I wouldn't suggest running any boost without SOMETHING to deliver more fuel.

Re:took the beast out for a drive today

I'd say you are definetely getting too much fuel. Especially in 3-5th gear, only because you are putting out the same amount of fuel as in 1-2nd. When you are in 3-5th gear there is less stress on the motor/ with the same amount of fuel, so you will run richer, thats why when you dyno you never dyno in 5th gear.
