I was telling you that from day 1, but you didn't believe me. I went through the same phase thinking that I was running really rich, but it didn't help when I leaned it out.

Trust me, I have run very rich at around 10.5:1 under full boost and I didn't see one puff of smoke. You aren't running rich, but it is nice to be in denial of such a tedious and expensive job like piston ring replacement.
