What else should I check to see if the neo is affecting it negatively?

The timing is off, because your tuner cant adjust it with an SAFC. The SAFC changes the timing everytime it changes the AFR and there is no real way to predict if it is going to be good or bad (although bad comes to mind as there is no way to set it).
What your tuner did was set the base timing correctly.
If you have a boost controler, i suggest you set the actuator arm to 10-11lbs, then use the boost controler to get a stable pressure. With just the actuator, your boost pressure will change depending on temperature and elevation - and timing and AFR (leaner = hotter, retarded timing = hotter, both making more boost). A boost controler is able to account for these and give constant boost.
If you are hitting 17-18lbs then it may be the spark plugs getting blown, so lower the plug gap a bit and get the new fuel pump.
Until you change your fuel pump though, do NOT boost the car, ever. You will run lean every time you do, and this kills an engine quickly.
