Overboosting - can't figure it out *DM file attached*

Got my new Sy on the road last week and it has been great, except for this overboosting problem i can't figure out.

Truck will overboost to 20+psi at just around half throttle which i confirmed with a DM reading. There is no fuel cut out however, and no codes are thrown.

Dm shows that the wgdc is only at around 40 so this means it is not opeing the wastegate enough correct?

I have the new vac line kit (installed correctly), and the wg arm at factory specs (7/8 overlap).

Anyone see anything i am not on the dm file? Rec 2840 to 2900 is a good example of the overboosting.

Bad wastegate solenoid?

Thanks

No knowledge on that ecm, i use #749 but this says it should work...

yeah from what i read the ecu is fine to use

maybe someone else will verify...U have a aftermarket boost controller? So you didn't have this problem before the new exhaust system?

no aftermarket boost control of any sort. didnt drive it before the new exhaust.

Aftermarket turbo? IF you haven't seen it check the wg rod adjustment here: http://www.tuneyfish.com/video_player.php?vid=235

stock turbo. but i did watch that video earlier today

With the wastegate solenoid unplugged i get the correct ~8psi.

Tried the wastegate from my Ty, with the same results. Next up is to swap the solenoid.

Is it wierd that the truck inst cutting fuel when it goes above 15? Its only for a millisecond that its above 15 because i let off quick. Maybe its not enough time for it to shut the fuel.

Bad wastegate solenoid?

Should have listened to myself. Swapped out the solenoid from my Ty ans no more overboost. So it all seems well and good for now.
