The boost fooler is plugged into the plug on the motor... and the edge is plugged into the boost fooler is that wrong? Reading the previous post sounds like I have it right, maybe I should go take a pic? I dont think its the tranny or fuel.... it lights up to 24 very fast and it shifts into 4th and still holds a reading of 24 and it does feel like there is much more to go it just levels off at 24 and stays at 24 doesnt build anymore boost but it builds speed like a mofo.... I tried it again on an off ramp floored it and it hit 24 in no time and I kept it pegged and I was doing well past 95 and it was reading 24 and I let off. IT seemed to get to 95 in 2 seconds though LOL

If that is the case, then the Edge is reading it wrong. Because, if you say you are getting to those speeds so fast, then the Edge is just telling you what the MAP sensor is reading. Get a mechanical gauge bud.

Getting gauges is in the future plans.
So if the smarty and edge boost fool to 44psi is having a boost fooler point less since Im only running 40psi?
If its reading 24 now why did it read 40 with the stock turbo?

Maybe didn't tighten the Exhaust Manifold right? Maybe the waste gate should be turned in some more? Who knows?

the new mainfold was torqued..... im going to try and adjust the waste gate tomorrow.... I beat on her pretty good tonight and the stock tranny is holding up just fine.... kinda scary. I must have the strongest best build stock auto ever! HAHAHA

That is what I say when I look at my RP on my Diprocol. I must have the BEST CP3 ever then. Since with Flux 3's and a Smarty/EZ stack, I can hold RP steady at 27k on kill mod. But I bet the EZ is causing that problem.

I wouldn't get it until you build tranny. Don't need nothing higher than 45lbs as she sits even with smarty

OK i took the boost fooler out and now it says its making 40psi.... so it must have been making 40 psi the whole time its just reading wrong. HAHAHA so should I leave it out for now? Or should I put it back in? I want to run a little more boost

Ya I hit 40 no problem.... I want to adjust the gate to get to 45 maybe 50
When I adjust the gate I tired turning the screw in and well its tight to the point where it feels like any tighter and its going to snap.... but is that how you adjust the gate? Im assuming the spring is pretty strong hence why it feels tight.

Yes its been making 40 the whole time... Like I said the other day you have them plugged in backwords. You have to have the Edge plugged into the motor first for 2 reasons. One so your gauge works, and 2 so that it knows how much boost your making for fueling.OK i took the boost fooler out and now it says its making 40psi.... so it must have been making 40 psi the whole time its just reading wrong.

I find it amazing how many people told you to plug it in wrong.
Again
MOTOR-EDGE-FOOLER-OE PLUG-ECM
That is the correct order.
But also like I said you don't need a fooler, the Edge does this for you.

I think whats confusing for me on how to plug it in is im not 100% on the terminology and Im thinking from the wrong direction.... i think i may either need an illustration LOL Im sorry i told you guys im a noob!
So the boost fooler should plug into to the edge and then the edges into the map plug on the top of the motor? Im sure this is easy but honestly after all this im getting confused because i must be making it way harder than it should be LOL
Fordassassassin: im not a big talk on the phone guy if you can shoot me a pm if you want... if not im ok with that too. THANKS GUYS!!!!
