Al,
I see your gear door is off.  Is that how you fly?

Bill;

What is the configuration of the static port?  I have the standard type used
on Cessnas, et.al.; slightly raised surface around the port (see photo,
behind bottom back corner of door).  Does your door fit nice and flush; and
small gap?  If not, it may cause some turbulence at high speed.

Seems very unlikely to be leak in the static system; more likely something
to do with the surface in the area of the port.

Al
