EGT difference between the two (lower boost higher timing vs higer boost lower timing)?

Making max HP is not what I want to do, I want reliable and consistent results.. For me the car needs make the same power at least 3 times in a row on back to back Dyno runs with no cool off...

With 100octane or e85 I would expect a 30-40whp bump In power with the smaller pulley.
