Questions and Answers
CA Prop 65
Prevent over boost and make big boost with this easy to install boost fooler modification. Over boost codes at between 23-24 psi set by truck with performance modifications like a performance chip or performance injectors results in computer defueling and trouble codes at those higher boost levels. When the computer defuels, the injector performance is reduced while the computer is in defuel mode.
The boost fooler allows the truck to function normally but tricks the computer by only allowing it to see lower normal boost levels. This is a inexpensive and simple product that is a must have for any modified truck. It is installed inline with the truck's map sensor and it's preset to 22psi. When the boost levels reach this pressure the valve releases and the map sensor only sees the 22 psi of boost although the truck is producing more boost and power. No more trouble codes in the pcm and no more defueling.
Plug and play design
Simple installation
Removes computer defueling codes in the PCM
More top end power
Less wasted fuel
1994-1997 OBS. Although you don't set a service engine light, this kit will still prevent defueling at higher boost levels in modified applications able to hit higher boost levels. If you hit more than 22 psi of boost (usually with modified injectors) it can keep you from defueling.

Diesel boost fooler kit
Did not do anything for my performance on my 97 F350 Full Force response *We are sorry that you didn't see any gains in your 1997 Powerstroke. The unit requires a certain amount of boost pressure to work properly. It's possible you do not make enough boost for this product to give you benefits. We will gladly accept the product for a return if you contact us.

Overboost / Defueling fix
My pcm was defueling my engine due to a wicked wheel 2 and banks big head wastegate actuator upgrade. Now my pcm is only seeing that I’m making 14lbs but I’m actually making 30.

Q:
How do you properly adjust this boost cooler or is an adjustment necessary? I’m still getting a service light with this product installed.
Asked by:

- 12/16/2021
A:
The Boost Fooler is preadjusted. If you are still getting a light it could be from a different issue. Give us a call if you have further questions.

Q:
Will this do anything on my 7.3 all that is done to the truck is the ts 6 position switch. In the performance tune (6) the check engine light comes on. Would it fix this problem?
Asked by:
Harper
- 11/29/2022
A:
Not knowing what your check engine light is for it does sound like it could be an overboost code. If that's the case this will fix that particular code.

Q:
have 2002 f350 7.3 -has TS performance 6 position tuner if set my tuner to 50hp will this help in pulling my camper Im looking at your FFD BOOST FOOLER KIT how much extra boost will this give me Everything else is stock
Asked by:
ROCKY S LANE
- 7/28/2021
A:
You won't get into the boost with a 50hp tune, that would cause the boost fooler to be needed. It won't help in that situation.

Q:
Is this only needed if you get a check engine light at full boost? I have a SuperChips tuner and even in Performance mode I don't get a check engine light, so would I not need a boost fooler?
Asked by:

- 1/13/2023
A:
If you're not overboosting then it doesn't offer much benefit.
