2 turbo issues - '06
First there was a loud pop as if a hose came off and a power loss - don't seem to see any hose disconnected. Happened to me once and seemed to return to normal and then happened to my son. Have not driven since the last time. Both times pulling a boat.
Second issue has been going on since I got the truck - bought used apprx. a year ago - believe it to be stock. The time from pushing accelerator until actual kick in is very elongated - sometimes worse than others but very long on the worst side. Usually noticed when needing to pass on the highway. Once kicked in truck runs well.
Thanks
Ted

I am assuming it was the pipe coming off of the Turbo to the inter cooler?
Common issue if the boots are in bad shape or just old.
The turbo lag could be a few things. Sticking turbo vanes, leaking up pipe bellows or a host of sensor/electrical issues.
Get the truck scanned for DTC codes and a way to monitor live data as you are driving.
