2006 6.0 Powerstroke

I have a 2006 6.0 Powerstroke. When I get my truck up to about 70 MPH on the freeway my boost is running normal. Then after a few minutes my boost starts climbing and no power until I completely let off the gas pedal. Goes back to normal then about 5 minutes later the same thing. Any ideas?

What’ is the engine oil temperature? And what is the engine coolant temperature? Invest in an obd2 Bluetooth dongle and torque app or invest in a scanguage 2 and start looking at some data. Also, watch the boost to see for sure what’s going on.

When was was the EGR last cleaned? Also, the VGT actuator might be your culprit.
