6.0 turbo problem

Hey guys I have a 05 with a 140xxx on it. Tonight when I was driving down the interstate I noticed my boost on my scangauge was .2 while going 65mph. I romped on it and it took a sec then boost jumped to 28. Let off boost went down to 8.7 and was fine. A minute later it dropped back out but came back on then dropped out again. I checked my boots and the cold side plastic pipe. The turbo was taken off and cleaned 6000 miles ago, got new cac boots at the same time. I also unplugged the turbo and plugged it back in. Still nothing. After I got back on the road my speedometer was reading 20 mph hire than I was actually goin. The speed sensor in the rear is new. My scangauge isn't throwing any codes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When you were driving it and noticed the boost gauge low was it driving fine? As in did you have power like it was supposed to have?

Well there's your Culprit EBP

You can try to clean it and the Metal tube

But odds are High it needs replaced Since it reads Low then high then low its ALL Over

Unplug it and drive see if it goes better
