Engine light case of Turbo overboost!

Hey guys engine light came on yesterday while I was pulling my fifth wheel up a steep grade. Said I overboosted the turbo. I only got to 31 PSI for approximately 30 seconds to 1 minute do I have anything to worry about? Can I drive it?

You can still drive it but its likely that there's something wrong with the Edge. That box has a built in boost fooler which interrupts the signal from the MAP and keeps the computer from knowing that the engine is building boost over that of stock levels. If you have a code reader, clear the code and see when or if it comes back.
