the blue box should intercept your map signal to your comp and tell it your not boosting. tricks it(kinda like a check valve or missing link accept its electric). your map sensor can only read i think 10 or 11 psi. if the comp sees more than one psi it will throw codes. maybe your blue box isnt working. or your waste gate isnt opening and your over boosting. boosting past what the blue box can hadle and its sending +psi signals to your comp
