Default VDHx is pissing me off - hidden pulsewidth multiplier

Somewhere in the VDHx calibration there is a hidden pulsewidth multiplier that I cannot find. When my engine is fully warm (was playing around yesterday with EOT's at 190 degrees), something is adding nearly a full ms of pulsewidth at WOT. I've been kinda tuning around it for a while, but I'm getting new injectors (bigger injectors) soon, and I'm tired of my pulsewidth not being exactly what I'm asking it to do.

For example, playing around yesterday I'm in a tune that calls for a max 3.3 ms of pulsewidth. Instead, I was getting 4.2 ms of pulsewidth, and it hit that the instant I went from a throttle position holding 3ms of pulsewidth at 2800 psi ICP with duty cycle well under 40%, to full throttle. Of course, holding 4.2 ms I watched my ICP plummet and duty cycle go sky high. The thing is, pulsewidth went sky high first, THEN the ICP started to drop. So something is tell my injectors to stay open much longer than I'm wanting them to, rather than my tuning adding pulsewidth because ICP is falling.

Problem is, I have the EXACT same values on PMT1 pulsewidth multipliers and adder maps and functions (all the pulsewidth multiplier and adder tables that I know of are exactly identical), yet whatever I set for pulsewidth in the PMT1 tune, that's exactly what I get. No if's, and's, or but's.

So there's some undefined table in my VDHx definitions that's multiplying my fuel injection pulsewidth, and I don't know where it is.

Any ideas?
