You probably are overboosting and need to install a boost bypass on it. The boost bypass is a solenoid that dumps your boost in certain situations like if you over rev during a burnout. You can either unplug the solenoid, which is a touchy subject, some people say it may throw a check engine light, some say it wont. Or you can buy the boost bypass kit. Or you can do a search on it on f150.com or NLOC, and find out the parts you need, spend 3 dollars on fittings and make your own. Very easy once you find the pictures. I made my own.
