Default Power Puck, Boost Fooler??

Sometimes it will throw a boost code and shut down (not going into limp mode) I have to remove the puck and fooler so it will run after I get the code to clear I can put them back on and it runs fine for awhile (over a month this last time) then it all happens again. Any suggestions?

You might have them hooked up backwards, try hooking them up the other way and see if it does it. I can not remember which is correct off the top of my head though.

I had the same issue and what it turned out being was a bad power puck. One time I was just entering an off ramp and the puck threw a code and thn my truck shut down on me in the centre of the off ramp while i was doing 50km. Also the truck sometimes would not start back up after a shut down untill i disconnected it. My performance supplier ordered in a new one for me and I haven't had a problem in months

Oh and I am running it so that the boost fooler is connected to the factory wire harness

A buddy of mine was having problems with his truck running a puck and a boost fooler. It didn't matter which way it was plugged in, he still got the same error code. When we tried the puck by itself along with the tuner and then the fooler by itself along with the tuner we had no problems at all. We ended up taking the boost fooler off for fear of burning up the turbo cause all it seemed to accomplish was run the boost up to 46 psi and raise the egt's too high.
