In general, you shouldn't need to use a boost fooler. All the normal calibrations are corrected to account for the normal boost increases at the higher power levels, but still allows the diagnostics to work in the event of a sensor failure.

With that said, some folks have run boost foolers and they claim to have seen an increase in performance. I've never seen it on my trucks or on our dyno, but I'm not going to argue with anyone's "butt-dyno". The placebo effect is real is all subjective anyway.

In the end, there's no harm in running one other than the price of admission.

Windows™ Vista and Windows™ 8 is a pain in my a$$!
Windows™ 10 is only slightly less annoying!
Windows™ 11 is garbage!
