for the clutch don't freak out yet. Whatever you do quit going WOT for a while. Slipping the clutch is not going to help bed it.
IMHO even though the miles on the clutch are good it is not broken in yet. Remember its not really the mileage that breaks in a clutch but the number of engagement cycles that seat the material. I suggest you don't go wot until you get another 500+ miles of stop and go driving in. When you take off from a light let the clutch slip more than what you would normally do. Kinda like when you first learned to drive. You want to heat up the surfaces and mate them. You don't want to overheat and glaze them.

if the car is already running on the lean side of safe (I know that Piggie suggested that I run my car at low 12s to start off) then turning down boost 3 psi could push it unsafely lean. He should log and show us to be sure.

I have kevlar and my buddy with modified 993 P-car runs it. It slips immediately after install just pulling out of the garage. It takes light driving/engaging to get the surfaces nice. After about 500 miles can you open it up.
Turning down your boost isn't the answer. You need to break in that kevlar. If it wasn't properly broken in then you have a few thousand miles of light driving ahead of you to re-break it in!
