Are you running any kind of programmer or fuelling box? What code # is it showing?

 

overboost code, Sounds like you need a boost fooler, or if you have a performance box"edge,tst,etc" the boost fooling part might not be working. what other mods do you have?

 

i dont remember the exact code and i do have a bully box from bully dog that im going to be hooking up tomorrow. i was thinking that the bully box might fix it

 

oh yea and by the way the code only comes up when i drive the truck hard, if i just cruise and no peddle to the metal it doesnt come up

 

i dont see any gauges listed...could be an expensive mistake to not have them!!

yep, get that bully dog box on there and you wont throw the code anymore.

without the box, driving it hard will raise your boost beyond the factory spec and cause the code.

 

actually my gauges just showed up today and thanks for the help
