Default check engine light comes on

when i get on it for more than a few seconds my engine light comes on and i read somewhere if the ses light comes on while your at 25-26 lbs of boost the engine defuels and i was wondering if the ses light and the check engine light could be the same thing

Depends... you need to check the codes... It could be a ICP issue or it could be an overboost.

What mods are you running?

i'm sure its just an over boost, your chip should read the diagnostics, it would either be under read DTC's or just diagnostics, your code will most likely be a p1211 if i remember right?
