Hey,
The other night I got a CEL for P0234, Engine overboost condition. Last weekend I got a Ported Intake Mani, Exhaust Mani and Megan 02 housing installed (THX RYAN!)! So any ideas or next steps I should take in getting this fixed?? I just wanted to try everything I could do on my own before I had to ask a shop for help.

+1 on the BC & tune. i think you are flowing too much air and need to back down the BC until you get a tune.

Just to note, the O2 housing might be the issue. Some of the Megan housings can cause boost creep around 5000 RPM. They aren't very consistent.

But, a tune might still correct the issue as long as you run more boost than the housing creeps to.

And if your dad is like mine....he's enjoying how young the car makes him feel. My dad won;t drive my car...he says it scares him...and then he thinks of how much trouble it will get him into

My dad still hasn't ridden in mine. I think it'd give him a heart attack these days, but he used to drive big blocks all the time. He used to do some wheel-to-wheel stuff in Germany too.
