Newbie with a 6.0 problem

It's a 2004 250, with low power. The last owner had put in a few injectors, but complained of no boost.
It has codes P0299, P1408, and P2253.
It has a new turbo, new VGT, new EGR and cooler. and still the same problem with the same codes. Im at a dead end. Anybody got my solution?
Thanks

Does it still have no boost?

Up pipe leaking maybe causing a low boost condition?

have you changed fuel filters

start it up and feel around the up pipes and Y pipe to turbo for leaks since its been worked on recently

also check the blue intercooler to turbo boots for cracks

do you have a tunner on it

heres a link for checking your up pipe

Chaffing wire harness, check the EBP SENSOR wiring harness back by the y-pipes,it will have the ribbed wire protector around it but that doesn't mean a thing the wires will still melt inside it.

What is P2253 for? I am not familiar w/ that for the 6.0L.

When you say new EGR and cooler, do you mean both a new EGR "VALVE" and a new EGR "COOLER"? If so, did you get a new oil cooler?

Forgive my typing skills. The code is P2263.
No there is no tuner. I am checking the pipes and EBP harness now. The CAC tubes are ok

Also check the map sensor and it's hose (attaches to passenger side of intake manifold) and see if the hose and intake nipple are plugged. From all these codes I'm thinking serious leak somewhere or a wiring problem. Is the EGR valve installed and plugged in?
