New pump Question

For those of you who read my earlier thread, I did get the truck running. I was a combination of dead lift pump, bad fuel supply line, and extreme advanced timing(which was due to me forcing the gear over the woodruff key and shearing it of ). Now it runs well(although it seems to miss at idle a little, but pulls all six in at anything above idle) but power is way down since the pump was rebuilt. Is it possible when they rebuilt the pump that by putting everything back to spec that now it would flow less fuel now after its rebuilt than it did before the rebuild ?

It seems like i'm getting less fuel for these reasons, max egt is now 300 degrees less than what was previously possible(1200).
Boost will not go over 18 lbs(max was previously 28lbs).
And lastly at my set distance where I test my vehicle's, it goes a full 10mph slower than it did before in the same distance.
A boost leak would only result in high egts, right?
The injectors tested out perfectly.
No leaks in the high pressure lines.
The fuel supply line seems to be ok(does'nt appear to be all rusty).
Off the line I would say it pulls as good now or better than before. It seems around 1500 rpms or higher that performance is just not there. Although the last several sentences would be my butt meter talking.
What exaactly am I missing?
