boost elbow without ez

[sinkinson1]

i got my edge ez in mail and put it on along with boost elbow. went for drive & loved it. next day went out and as soon as the tc locked up i thought there was an earthquake in ga. so i took the ez off till i can put dtt or sun coast valve body in. is it ok to leave the boost elbow on? my egt's are a few hundred lower with it and still get 27 psi. thanks for any info.

From my understanding, you will set an overboost code without the EZ in place...

what will be the effect of that. i'm at 99000 miles so my warenty is basicly gone. should i have any concerns

Well, someone with more tech knowlege will surely jump in here, but if you set an overboost code, I think it will cause your injector to defuel (safety feature)...

if this is the case isnt there a company in the tdr magazine advertizements that make a defueling box? would this work to get more power but not enough to make my trans. shake and shimmy like with the ez installed.

Here is an easy solution, put the ez back on but do not hook up the data link portion. It will still act as a boost module but will not effect the engine other than keeping it from defueling.
