Does SCT have a built in boost fooler?

[ImStrokin]

I bought an SCT tuner from ID and it has Eric's custom tunes on it. I was just wondering if it had a built in boost fooler or if I should get one? Thanks!

I also wanna know this, who's got the answer?

From what I understand yes. That is why a boost fooler is useless on a 6.0

Stupid question. What's a boost fooler?

[Dave]

A boost fooler is piece of equipment that makes an ECM see less boost than is actually produced. Preventing the engine from defueling.

Its more common in a 7.3.

The SCT isnt a boost fooler by definition. It actually allows for changes in the programming. Making no need for the equipment

It fools the map sensor to not allow the engine to defuel. I'm not sure what the magic number is for boost though I think 25

Thats the correct number for a 7.3

However a stock 6.0 can and will see 30 pisi
