Unpluged my Dr. Performance pressure box, seems to be working well now. Wow, I'll write more about it soon.

OK, as I said, after dropping the tank several times, checking pressures, hooking up gauges, I took out my Pressure box. When I did, I started receiving rail pressure readings from my BD outlook moniter (which I didn't know it gave,duh). AD pressure is a constant 17lbs, and RP goes up to around 24,000. Much power has been restored but not all. I'm only getting 28lbs of boost and had 42 before but I had my wastegate hose pinched down and I took it off. I'm going to put the clamp back on and check it again. It seems my Dr. Performance Box is not compatable with the AD. As far as AD goes, Idle is much smoother and quieter. Low end power seems to be improved and spool up seems to be almost instant. EGTs are low which I'm guessing is because of low boost? I thought lack of fuel caused low egts? Any more input would be appreciated.
Thanks
Not mad anymore

I dont see how the AD would have anything to do with the pressure box??...my guess is it was just a fluke that your DR box started to act-up at the same time?

Low boost = high EGT

That would be a fluke allright, I may hook it back up just to see what happens. If not I wonder if they could reflash it.

I got the hose to my wastegate pinched down like it was and I'm now making about 40lbs of boost. I hadn't got to test it too much yet but at WOT my EGTs didn't get to 900. Truck runs much quieter and idles smoother and may be just my imagination but seems to spool up quicker, much quicker.
