While pulling a 30' 5th wheel while going up a hill in fourth the engine will quit pulling and slow down. Is the over boost code responseable for the lower power or is it something else.

Yes the overboost code will definately make it defuel. Do you have a stock turbo? Does it have any other mods, like a boost valve or banks big head?

Not uncommon to throw that code while towing

there are paremters set in stock tunes and if you even have a odd shift it will throw the. Code

if you had or even know someone with efi it is a simple fix

try removing the boost valve when towing. this code can be set off as low as 15 psi it just depends on gear and rpm your in. sell the edge and get efi it will help a lot. you can try and turn down low boost fueling ,if you can and that might help.
