low boost problem.

got a 2006 f250. when i got the truck it would push around 25-28lbs when really getting into the gas. now it doesn't seem like its running near as quick when i get on it. it only makes about 20lbs then starts to fall as i gain speed. usually stops about 18lbs. but i have noticed that when I'm running about 50 and steadily push the throttle that is will build up to 27lbs. its not throwing any codes so I'm thinking that maybe my vanes aren't moving all the way or maybe my air filter is clogged. what do y'all think?
