Hey Justin, 

These result was with Parinello-Rahman.
Here is the  setting for T and P coupling;

; Temperature coupling
tcoupl                   = berendsen
tc-grps                  = System
tau_t                    = 1.0
ref_t                    = 300
; Pressure coupling is on
pcoupl              = Parrinello-Rahman   
pcoupltype          = semiisotropic     
tau_p               = 2.0 2.0         
ref_p               = 150.0 1.0         
compressibility     = 0 4.5e-5        
refcoord_scaling    = com
; Periodic boundary conditions
pbc     = xyz                   ; 3-D PBC
; Dispersion correction
DispCorr    = no
