Over boost anniahlator

So, I get like 30+psi of boost with my singleshots and van turbo in any DP Tuner setting, and so my Check Engine light comes on. Does the engine de-fuel when the light comes on causing me to loose some power? or does the fact I bought "no code" tunes pre-empt that

Scan it to see what code pops up.

If you have the no-codes tune, then you shouldn't need the OBA.

I have the no code tunes and some where around 25-30 psi of boost my SES light comes on but theres no de-fueling it keeps running strong past 40 psi and the light will go out in a minute.

I get the same exact thing, I guess the OBA that I made dosen't work well sitting in the tool box.

Yeah, we need to know what code it's throwing. I don't get any codes now (I'm getting 35psi on my van turbo) running the ITP OBA.

It is probably an IPR situation. When I first got my DP and the annihilator, I still was getting codes. It turned out to be an IPR issue.

This isn't entirely true. If you ask Jody (and I did when he live tuned my truck) even with the no codes tune it can still set the overboost light. It is harder to do, but it will still come on. His tune will prevent defueling so it won't hurt to not have a OBA. His words were 'you don't need an OBA', but the light annoyed me. Clay was kind enough to lend me his homemade one and I haven't set a code since. I guess I need to tell him he permanently lent it to me.

Chris, do you remember this thread? Click here
We talked about this back then. You said you were going to shoot an email to Jody. Did you do that, and if so, what did he say?
