2008 F250 HELP

So getting on the interstate today and motor made a pop and I lost all boost. I was about 30 minutes away from home so limped back home and no irregular smoke from exhaust but it began to seem smokey in the cab. I assume my turbo is blown. I cant see any hoses blown off or leaks. Is the turbo just done? Not sure if it matters but the truck also has egr delete as well as cold air intake. Any suggestions?

Check your boots on the hot side charge tubes, I'm sure one of them is blown off or torn.

If the DPF filter has been removed you should've had smoke if the turbo went. I'd bet a boot is torn or a boot clamp broke, I had that happen more than once and you get a loud bang and loose boost and power instantly.

Did you find the problem? Same thing happened to me and I got the same responses. Still can't find the problem and it's been 3 weeks.

I did find the issue. One of the heavy duty UP pipes blew a hole in it dumping exhaughst straight into the firewall and not getting air to the turbo.
