If you can "override" the overboost, id say it isnt overboosting, id say its the valve springs.If your valve springs are failing, the problem will get worse, not better, and could result in a broken spring. Which is bad. Mind you, ive never seen a broken XR valve spring, but someone has to be the first.←Thanks mate ←Whether it is overboost or springs, get it sorted soon You don't want that happening when in the opposing lane whilst overtaking Happened to me twice.... though mine was I believe UniChimp related. Ford couldn't fix it, tuner couldn't fix it. Return to stock no more overboost.
