overboost with Phoenix?
i got a Phoenix chip with stock, whisper mode, dd, 2 tow tunes, and the 120hp. i was under the impression that these chips were tuned so you dont need the overboost annihilator or BRV+ relief valves. Long story short my truck is still throwing overboost codes and defueling, really annoying when pulling something. What should i do?

It depends on the tunes being used. Does it defuel in the 120 HP setting? If I'm not mistaken, I think Bill leaves the overboost and wastegate control solenoid settings stock with the towing tunes.

What codes are you getting and what vehicle is this
|
Its a late 99 F250, 7.3, ive got the stock, 65dd, whisper mode, 65tow, 40tow, and 120 extreme. at least i think thats what they are dont have the order form right here with me so im not sure on the numbers. i have an DIY intake, straight pipe, Turbomaster adj wastegate controller, and the 6 pos. i dont know what codes they are but its in towing and dd when the truck boosts hard, havent tried it in the 120 mode yet. Truck hits 28-30psi, light comes on and power tops out. Really really annoying when you try to pass someone on the interstate. Love the chip otherwise, just curious about this.

Could be a 1211 code, you NEED to check codes to be sure it is not something else.
|
you need to see what codes are stored.. what you think is an overboost my actually be a low ICP. I get that under high boost and heavy load sometimes. the stock pump can't always keep up with the Oil pressure that's being requested... that is the reason I am planning on adding an adrenaline pump later
|
By the way, 28-30 PSI out of the stock turbocharger is death for it and you're certainly not gaining any more power by pushing it that hard.
|
No problem ill get them checked out. The light only stays on for a few minutes so i hope the codes are stored.
