dp boost

so i have been playing with my new dp a lot but i was noticing that my boost shoots up to around 30 psi where my old SCT could maybe push 23,i also know that a stock turbo shouldn't see more than 25, so should i just back out of it when i see boost that high?

it comes preset to stop your boost at 25-26 pounds. just hook it up in your line and good to go. takes about 5 min to install

That's not going to stop the turbo from overboosting like that, all it does is prevent more than a set psi from being seen at the MAP sensor so it doesn't set a code or defuel.

You can regulate your boost pressure by adjusting the wastegate rod to try and keep it from going that high. Or if you want to spend money on a new toy this works very well:
