Been working on a 2006 6.0l with 106,000 miles on it. Bone stock except for an EGR delete. Customer complained that it would have lack of power at times. Took it for a test drive and had it once just drop power and turbo boost spike at 20 and stay there. Customer had already purchased a reman turbo and wanted that installed. During the install I noticed both Up-pipes where cracked and the bellows so those where replaced also.
Took it for a test drive for about 30 miles and everything seemed fine. He picked it up hooked on to his camper and went on his own test drive he said after about 10miles it started doing the same thing. No power and boost staying at 20 psi any time you are into the skinny pedal.
To me it seems like the computer is closing the vanes down on the turbo for some reason but I dont know why.
Could a EBP sensor be causing this?
Anyone have any ideas here?
Thanks in advance
Mike
