Smile edge comp woes

hey fellows and ladies i just joined a couple days ago and i gotta say that this forum in my opinion is the best. Anyway i have a comp box and ive checked and reconnected the pump tap wire and it still is only making a 2 psi boost difference from lvl2 to lvl5. egts on 5x5 only get up to 1250 . i did a continuity check on the wire from the comp box to the pump and its good. my thinkn is if it aint that ole cheap blue wire connecter that comes wth the comp. have stock injectors is 30psi of boost bout all im gonna get any opinions and answers are greatly appreciated.

Is the proper wire tapped on the pump? A stealth cover eliminates the confusion of which wire is the correct one. It could also be a problem with the Comp itself. How old is it?

Has it always acted this way on the truck, or is it a recent event? Where did the Comp come from?

I would send it to edge and have them check it out. I sent mine in before even hooking it up when i got it used from someone. Best customer service ive delt with in anything i have bought from anyone.

Edge wont be able to do anything with it i tryed with my old comp box made in 08. i justb got the juice with attitude and like the comp better. my tuck pushed 32 psi with just the comp as my fueling modd on 5x5 check your map sensor when the go out or get any vapor in them the either get an over boost code or none at all cause it will read wrong and not fuel any at all.
