Well Odds are getting little more now the MAF Could be BAD and could contribute to the overboost issue

1. You have a MAF DTC
2. Sprayed with break cleaner

Did you ever get a MAF reading on your Scanner before when it was running good??

I assume you cleaned the MAF after the OverBoost condition poped up???Is this true??

If you had a DVM you could backprobe the MAF sensor and check it that way Just Keep in mind the IAT is Part of the same sensor so MUST be CERTAIN what wire does what theres a wire diagram in tech fold would help figure the plug Pinout

Might be worth a Shot BEFORE you change the sensor out Cuz might be issue with the Wire Harness to MAF and NOT the MAF Sensor itself

Oh so you had opposite before Low Boost then Cleaned the MAF and went to OverBoost conditions

I would try to use a DVM to check the MAF sensor output and the wire harness to it

It could have a short/ pinched wire or something and going crazy from moving the Wire Harness around

MAF sensor or wiring to it could be BAD so Im just covering all the Bases

Hate to see you install a new MAF and Have the same problems

But if your not to worried about buying a new MAF go for it everything kinda points to MAF anyway
BUT Beware I got Bit over a similar Deal the other day guy had bad MAP reading so change the MAP sensor and still had Bad Reading I felt Bad as should have trouble shoot it further to be certain

I cleaned mine with Kleen Flow carb and intake cleaner, I thing it is a softer fluid since it is made to shoot right in the intake, although I did not shoot in the intake, I cleaned it just because I had it out, everything is OK so far, hope it stays this way.

Im thinking your MAP sensor probably OK

I know it reads High and wrong But Im thinking it could be trying to make up for 0 MAF

I guess time will tell Let us know how you make out

Good Deal

Just the MAF replaced Fixed it

Did you Install the New MAP Sensor to

I remember you said you ordered Both

Guess I just trying to see What Sensor did it I assume the MAF Sensor was the Ticket

MAF sensors dont Fail often guess the Brake Cleaner Killed it

THANKS for Posting the Final Result

I ordered both but only replaced the MAF. I figured what were the chances of them both going bad at same time.

Although in the last 2 weeks i had

EGR cooler fail,
Alternator fail
MAF fail
#8 injector came apart
And oil cooler stopped up

so ya never know for sure. lol
