Turbo

Just did and egr delete, replaced oil cooler and #4 injector. Had issues starting now all is good. Had bad exhaust leaks and fixed that and now I have no boost in my turbo. Everything is sealed up 100% and the boost gauge reads nothing. I checked the vgt plug and it good, what could be happening?

Do you have the plastic CAC tube? Mine was cracked and I replaced it with a metal one from RiffRaff Diesel. However, even with the cracked tube I was getting some boost.

Yep, that will do it. It's a lesson to be learned that running diagnostics will help determine problems pretty fast.

Here's a page from my Dashboss to verify all is operating at the proper baro pressures.

Know that EBP is rated by psi, not hg's of mercury but if you convert the data, that too will be close to the other measurements.
