Default Turbo

When it is cold the turbo closes and opens I assume to help warm up the engine. Is there a way to gut this all out. It pisses me off when im trying to get going and the truck falls on its face. If it is truly needed then I understand if I cn get rid of it then how do I do it.


Truck is a 00' 7.3


Thanks
