Default What I believe to be turbo issues.

Ok, I am having a problem with my acceleration. I step on the gas and nothing....I have to pull over to the shoulder and let off the gas and very slowly start to accelerate. In that time I hear no turbo whistle. When I reach about 30 to 40 mph my turbo will kick in and then I can start moving along again. I also am experiencing the same when I am towing my 5th wheel when I need to go up hill. I step on the gas and my truck starts to lose power I let off the gas and start again and it starts going again. I have a 2004 Ford F250 6.0L, egr delete, swamped tuned FICM, ARP head studs, AFE intake (came with the truck), MBRP 4 inch exhaust, and edge tuner. I have not yet had a chance to get to the shop to have any diagnostic work done yet so I do not know if any codes are present. I have read that my turbo might be sticking. Just thought I would ask to see if there might be anyone who could help without me having to take it to the shop. Thanks

went to Autozone yesterday and there OBD said 0 codes. It seems kind of weird to me though because since my EGR delete I have always had some type of code about at least that. Not to sure other than to take it and spend the money to get a full diagnosis ran.
