My truck used to show the 1670 when I put the dp tuner on it but my buddy is a Ford tech he said it was no big deal. He said see if it goes away so far I dont think it is there the light never comes on anymore

That's not soot. That's just oil and dust from your CCV.

What kind of boost fooler had a wire? Its usually just a replacement map line

theres a way to ground something and fool it into thinking its only seeing so much boost.

Zener diode. Never used it, but heard it works.

I have the diode in mine it works good but its no wires. It just looks like a resistor or something. There is no wires coming off it. You put each end into a certain wire in the map line. If he has the diode maybe someone put it on the wrong wires

I would ditch that thing and get a nice one from itp diesel or something. That might be half of your problem
