Hello all, I have a 2003 LB7 Dmax and I have done some mods. I have added the ppe boost increase valve, the edge juice with attitude monitor hot version and mbrp 5" exhaust system. I first put on the edge juice module and the truck made 26lbs of boost and ran fine in level 6. Next I installed the ppe boost increase valve. The truck makes 28lbs of boost and ran fine with level 6. I then installed the mbrp 5" exhaust system and in level 6 the truck acts like it is floating the valves? Level 5 it runs strong and no problems but level 6 the truck misses and it just reminds me of a gas v8 floating the valves @ over rev? The hot version is 150hp and I have had the juice hot b4 stacked with a bully dog power pup downloader in 155hp mode without any problem? Any ideas would be great, thanks, Randy.

Lift pump. Sounds like its starving for fuel.

Yea, watch for your check engine light to come on, i dont remember the specific dtc, but it will come up on here as air bubbles in the injection pump. Better pick up a lift pump, the edelbrock 1792 is a great pump for under $200.

Dmax500HP,
Is your truck building boost and then fluctuating it? I am asking since I put a valve inline of my wastegate line, and I can not build the boost, I can see 24 for maybe a split second then it drops off to 20 and then fluctuates between 17-21 psi. My EGT's will go up to 1700 degrees.
Not to steal a thread, but would a lift pump maybe fix my problems? I have actually closed the valve on the wastegate line completly to get the boost PSI.

No, my truck will build the boost and hold it as much as I could tell. I will pay closer attention to it and let you know.
