Gunner,
Have you tried taking several thread passes at exactly the same depth to discover if there is any drift during the entire cycle?
Does your spindle rpm command match the actual rpm? Does the spindle motor hold constant speed throughout the threading? Possibly the spindle drive needs a bit of a parameter adjustment in its PID settings, in case it is over or under -reacting when the cutting load begins.
