Very low Turbo boost and loss of power

Very low Turbo boost and loss of power
So I have a 2008 6.4 with dpf delete and edge tuner.
Last night I was driving in a big rain storm and my engine light came on, throwing two codes, P0528 and P0401. I cleared both codes and engine light goes out, then 5 mins later I had a power loss and barely any turbo psi.
I get up this morning and head to work, everything is normal and lots of power and boost.
Could something have gotten wet in that heavy rain storm, then maybe dried out??

Anything is possible I guess. Turbos have been known to suck oil off of oiled air filters so water could be a problem depending on the severity.

Things to check for would also be possible restrictions pre and post turbos.
Is your EGR still functioning or does the Edge tuner turn it off?

- Damaged FSS sensor
- Damaged PCM
- Obstruction stopping fan from moving

- Aftermarket intake systems or exhaust systems
- Restricted air flow (intake or exhaust)
- Restricted EGR cooler
- EGR valve position sensor bias
- Exhaust pressure (EP) sensor bias
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor bias
- EGR valve

DPF is one thing and EGR is another.
I cant quit understand why your getting an EGR PID if your egr is disabled via the tuner. May want to talk to Edge about that.
