[QUOTE="B585Ford, post: 998206, member: 5497"] To clarify, I am not stating the a WG wouldn't be worth considering. I wish I had done one on my old setup to keep EBP in check (and I now do have one). If you get a WG dialed in right, you can have it open before EBP gets so high that robs peak power. It can also take some of the strain off the valvetrain by keeping the EBPs lower. The only disadvantages IMO are they can be tricky to get dialed in and it is one more part that can fail. My point from before was that if you are throwing a code on "Mild" there almost has to be an issue. Mild should not be putting out enough fuel to cause EBP problems high enough to trigger a code and limp mode. Again, I would like to know what your EBPs were when you threw the code. Since you did throw that code multiple times, I think it is a VGT issue...not necessarily the turbo itself, but as someone mentioned earlier and you replaced it, the EBP sensor could have been the issue.
