Reduced power after gettin on it

I recently had a tune put in and the car now runs as it should...very strong...feels as if it wants to just lift those front tires right off the ground! Anyway while showing my friends what she can do I managed to get put in my place with reduced power and check engine lights. Now the first time this happened I had pushed it hard enough to get wheel hop....I generally do what I can to avoid this and Ive only done it once. The second time I did it I was pusing hard and shifting hard but I never even make it to redline...redlines scare me so I shift before getting there. Im shifting hard and fast mind you.
What is my problem?

Your problem is the 1514 table has not been done right.
This was not brought up to me before.
New file is on it's way, check your email.

Who ever tuned your car is a total idiot and needs to find a diff. ocupation. Even the pred. tune as rich as it is, that Rick Squires sends out with his kits takes care of this issue.

Tom is thu MAN....once again. As you know it wasnt tuned very well at all so I couldnt get it to transition into boost so now that the car actually runs like a beast Im sure I will find out many more things. Wideband ordered and confirmed at this point so I should be getting that soon and once I figure all that out I will get you some real scans.
