whats up guys i just installed a ppe boost controller on my 05 lly this past friday and today when i was leaving work the check engine light came on. so i grab the scanner and read the codes and i have a engine underboost code and a boost sensor circuit code and a control module memory code all having to do with the turbo. so i try to clear the codes and shut the truck down and crank it back up up an boom they come right back so i look at the data display on the scanner and drive the truck and the boost says like 30psi full throttle under a load. i realize the factory boost sensor is off because of the controller but has anyone else having problems with getting these codes with the controller. keep in mind i had the knob turned all the way to the left for facotry boost setting and had the switch towards the grove on the shaft where they say to run it if the truck is stock, because i just recently sold my programmer.

i unplugged it and cleared the codes and the light hasn't been back on yet i just hope this isn't what i have to look forward to when i install the egr delete kit also because i've heard nothing but good things about their products

If you are getting an underboost code, believe it or not, it is turned up too high
