My thought would be to retorque the head bolts. When doing WOT tests on the dyno, your head may have floated enough to develop a slight leak and then settled back down. I've never experienced it, but I've spoken to some guys running some pretty high pressures on their turbos who swear that the head "floats" when the turbo puts out that much pressure.
