While installing the SRL tune from Gearheads helped out a bunch with throttle response, the EGR cooler delete added more. Might be something to consider. Although I would look into the condition of your oil cooler first. I got to tear in to my truck twice, once for EGR cooler, once for oil cooler. :doh:

Check CAC boots for leaks - very common on the bottom of the silicon boots to split and is hard to see without removal. Also Intercooler exit side plastic tube that feeds up to the intake elbow likes to split on the bottom. A very small hole will kill your power.

Might also have an exhaust leak in uppipes.

Do you have any gauges?
