alright, i just deleted my egr ( just welded it closed) i know , its cheaper and still looks like its still on. while we were doing that and had the turbo off, i deceided to go ahead with rebuilding the turbo and added the wicked wheel 2. at this point at wide open throttle i cant make much more than 20 psi boost
and thats even topped out at 3500 rpms. the truck runs good, smooth, no leaks that i can hear, i replaced the hose from the map sensor to the intake a while ago and one of clamps was a little loose. i tightened it up but wont get to check it out til tomorrow. would that loose clamp make me loose that much boost, and what should i expect to get out of this ww2. its completly stock 2006, 6.0L, 4" lift on 35's, studded and now deleted with no tune, 160,000 miles.?????

no, with the egr plugged in i can clear the code with the obdII , i was told to unplug it and see if i got more boost, i got 22psi, max. but still got the egr code. thats it. i cant get a tuner til next year. i just checked my boots to see if they are colapassing under pressure , and they are not. ?
