When my EBP sensor went out, I could do maybe 10 mph wide open throttle while belching black smoke everywhere. I checked the parameters between the BARO, MAP and EBP and the EBP was way off compared to the other two. I didnt throw a CEL but I didnt scan for codes either. Was going off of symptoms.

Ugh. Looks like its more than the turbo. Disconnected the boat and tried driving. Not enough power to go over 5 miles an hour and 100 yards. Pulled off, disconnected the battery and drained the rail mounted fuel separator. Tried again and same thing. Now it's parked. Guess a tow truck and trip to the dealer is next. As a side note, the fuel in the fuel tank has been in there for a week and 400 miles. So I do not think its bad fuel. Edge Insight showed several codes, all EGR related and one that said something about minimum turbo boost...

A stuck open egr valve will cause those symptoms. If the valve had been disconnected for a long time, and was recently plugged back in, there may have been a build up of carbon that got stuck in the valve.
The egr valve is pretty easy to remove with an 8mm socket, extension and ratchet and a large pair of channel lock pliers.

To you and I, it may be relatively easy to remove, but to someone inexperienced it can be a bit of a chore if it's really stuck in there.

That's true. Some of them put up a pretty good fight, especially if they have never been out before.
