Question MP8 & Quad Boost Fooler??

I'm going to be adding a TS MP8 to the mix and already have a Quad Boost Fooler. Can I run both or should I remove the Quad? Does the MP8 boost fool even if it is in the off or lowest position? Thanks for any ideas or tips...

MP8 does boost fooling. Really no need for the Quad boost fooler.

as long as the mp8 is on at least 1%, it won't throw codes. When I have it all the way down, it will throw overboost codes. Ditch the quad, keep it above 1%.

I guess that should be save for daily driving too? A guy should obviously run the Smarty TNT on stock rail pressure too??

Get a rail pressure gauge. Keep it around 18-19k for extended periods of time (i.e. highway driving). With the smarty on stock rail pressure, you'll probably be somewhere around 10-30% on the mp8 to achieve this pressure.

I have the Quad commander. My pressure is around 17k on the highway, 22k WOT and 6k idle on TNT #9

It modifies the boost pressure signal to the ECM fooling it into thinking the pressure is lower and therefore the ECM allows you to make more boost. This gets you higher boost for very little money. I think you will need a separate boost gauge of some sort to see you actual pressure.

With the MP8, where does a guy tap into for rail pressure? I'm tapped onto the blue wire at the plug now but do I now tap onto the blue wire on the MP8 side closest to the rail pressure sensor?
