Edge EZ and Boost Fooler

Can you stack an Edge EZ into a Boost Fooler on an 01?

Edge should do boost fooling on its own.

Right...no reason to stack the two. The EZ is already taking care of it.

Did you have your wastegate disabled on your turbo as well? If you didn't disable the wastegate, then you won't see higher boost. The boost fooling function is just there to hide the higher boost once you mechanically disable the wastegate.

Boost fooling doesn't matter if you have an auto or manual. The only difference is the method of disabling the wastegate. On the HY turbos, you'll need a j-hook or something to plug the line. On the HX turbos, you can use a boost elbow to restrict flow to the wastegate.

yep, If you disable the wastegate without a boost fooler, The computer will just defuel and you wont see anymore power.

If you add a boost fooler without disableing the wastegate, then you also wont see anymore power.

These mods go hand in hand.

If you add the Edge without disableing the wastegate, you will see SOME increase in power. If you add the Edge and disable the wastegate, you will see MORE power.

If you have to get some hay wire and tie the wastegate closed, MY truck has vise grips hanging off the wastegates line lol.
