Hey,

You may want to check the intercooler boots. I know on mine I found one where the fender was rubbing against the stock boot and it had been doing that well before I bought the truck. So take a look at those, Do you have a Stock turbo or has it been changed out? Wastegate could be stuck maybe, boot clamps could be loose. So as you can imagine, it would help out with more info about your ride. Hope this points you in the right direction.

He need more fuel. The stock programming won't fuel enough on it's own. Look at a Smarty or Edge product.
