I did. Like I said, I am seeing 39psi with it on the stock setting. This may be normal for a 2006 or maybe someone installed a boost fooler? I have pushed it pretty good and nothing bad has happened, turbo sounds differnet than my other 2006 did but there is no cat and a tiny muffler on this one where I had a stock exhaust system before.

According to boost fooler instructions theypiggybackinto the map sensor plug. Since the edge uses this plug also I am sure I would have noticed this! I will check again tomorrow. Moconst, have you checked yoru boost at the upper 2000 rpm range? This is where I see the high boost numbers.

Ok, just went outside in my underwear with a flash light and climbed up into the engine compartment and there is no boost fooler on the map sensor plug.

I am just concerned. The truck doesnt seem to be as fast as it should be judging from my last one, I realize this one has more weight with the 4x4 but that shouldnt matter that much. I am hoping when I put my aero on next week it will make a huge difference. My other thought was that if this turbo is over boosting wouldnt that hurt power as well?
