Sounds like a dodge problem to me, you should do something about that. Maybe add another turbo or something.:haha: :flipoff:

That was pulling Manastash Ridge heading towards Yakima pulling the race car trailer, fully loaded. Never got below 65 the whole way up. I don't think I was above 1/2 throttle. :redneck:

I borrowed a friends code scanner and read the codes and sure enough, 0237 and 0216, cleared them out and no more codes and they dodn't come back this morning after my ride to work.

I think the 0237 MAP Low E code came from when I installed the Edge and I ran the engine to clear out the chips from teh EGT drill and tap and the MAP wasn't hooked up??????

Hopefully good to go now.

Gonna play with the wastegate a bit now to get the boost up around 30' then we'll see how the EGT's are?

clearing the 0216 code will make it drive a little better for a little while. The codes don't come back imediatly.

Yep... might take a little while, but 0216 will come back. I know you don't want it to be true, but you're going to need a new pump soon.
