Slow acceleration for my 2011????????
I just bought a 2011 2500 megacab manual trans. I've ordered the parts for the deletes, and a mini max, and intake. But, before I install it all, I seem to have a issue. Sometimes the truck accelerates fine, and other times it's slow slow slow. RPM's climb slow, feels like I'm dragging a 50,000lb trailer. No codes, everything else seems fine. 8000mi on the ticker. Funny thing is it will be slow one second, then normal, then slow, all within a few blocks. I thought it was maybe me, but now i'm sure it is the truck. Three thoughts I have, maybe someone can help me. TPS? VTR? Wastegate? Please help me cuz this thing almost got me in a accident. Slow acceleration almost got me t-boned crossin a intersection.

Typical response from dealers.
Took it to 2 dealers this mournin, first one said that if something was wrong that it would show a code, what a joke. Second one was actually nice enough to hav a tech take a ride with me. He saw what I was talkin about, and wanted to run a scan. Hooked it up------------- nothin. Said to keep drivin it and if it get's worst to bring it back. Why did I waste $45g? Should have bought a older truck for 20 or so and stuck 20 into it. Should I just go ahead with the deletes? Scheduled for work tomorrow. Diesel shop says that his dealer will warranty stuff on his diesels that are deleted as long as they are not outta control with crazy stuff, and visibly beat. Do I roll the dice. I'm not goin crazy with this truck, just don't want such a pooch, and a little mpg's would be nice.

F-it, it's goin in for the deletes tomorrow! I think the motor is chokin itself with that stupid egr. The mapp sensor can't get a good reading, and doesn't know what to do. Just talked with Valair too, very imformative on some clutch options, and really good prices. Impressed so far with their advice. Then, turbo, any suggestions? Want it to be still very drivable/ towable.
