Default Will not build boost with trailer?

I had my 4 wheeler trailer on my truck over the weekend and it would just smoke on the towing setting with22 ponds of boost.I have checked for leaks on intercooler boots reset apps fuel pressure is 20 pounds.Seems the only way to get it to lite is ease into it or put edge in 6 then it will boost 40 it takes it a bit.It has a new vp on it too.Lookin for some ideas.Thanks

maby its not locking up all the way, with a trailer you should load the turbo more than without

what exhaust housing is on that one? sounds like some good lag is your prefuel set high or low? Might have a bit too much fuel for the super b. you could have a map sensor issue too.

I bought a quad and put it on man it makes more power and boost then my edge did when it was new.My prefuel setting for 3 was on 3.I put a new 100hp inj pump on it seems to have made it worse but not with the quad.I fixed a connector tube leak yesterday didnt want to start today.It runs great now if i can just get it to start in the morning.
