Question Commander Reading Lower Boost With New Quadzilla Boost Fooler??

Hi y'all. My Commander seems to be reading low now that I put a Quad boost fooler inline. I was wondering, does a guy have to now tap the boost fooler blue wire coming out of the MAP sensor side to make the Commander read the true boost?? Thanks for any help...

If the quad reads the boost off the factory computer it won't read over 21psi of boost with the fooler installed.

you may be able to plug the quad in the map sensor first then the boost fooler then that should take care of it.

The Commander is not a direct plug in type of gauges. It taps the blue wire of the Map sensor harness only with one wire. That's why I'm all confused..

You need to tap the dark blue wire on teh boost fooler that is plugging directly into the MAP sensor and the reading will be correct.
