Our trucks don't really take overboost into account. It doesn't hurt to have one though.
You'd have to be running a monster turbo for you to need a boost fooler.
So, unless your prepaired to make 50+ lbs of boost, I'd forget it.

The OBS truck's start defueling at 24 PSI of boost. Some trucks don't throw a CEL when they start defueling.
If you are running the stock turbo a boost fooler isn't necessary, but won't hurt. I can hit about 25-26 PSI with my current setup and stock turbo.

Some trucks do defuel and some don't. It seems the majority of them don't, but it is common on the OBS Powerstroke's.
First post on this page is Jake with TDP. He said it is visible when live tuning.
Defueling OBS - Page 2 - PowerStrokeNation : Ford Powerstroke Diesel Forum
Here is a couple pretty good videos showing one defueling at around 25 PSI.

Tyrant Diesel (Cale) says an OBS Powerstroke needs a boost fooler for any boost numbers over 36 PSI.

What does my post count have to do with anything?

As for your post count, I didn't refer to that. I was referring to you not posting here much.
I've seen guys claim you need boost foolers just to sell them.
And I've also seen people rip off other peoples designs and then push them telling customers they need them if they run custom tunes.
The way his boost is dropping in the video's I doubt has anything to do with de-fueling.
Bottom line is, This product is really only necessary if your trying to make big power.
Without head studs, rods and springs, making more than 40 lbs of boost is a dumb idea.
