loss hp?

I have an 04 SD 6.0 6 speed. I took it in for service because at idle it would blow blue smoke. I recently had the recalls done on it, 05E15, 05S34, and 05B29. I thought after having these done it would fix it. It did'nt. So they replaced the egr valve with a new one and gave me the old one. It does'nt smoke or have a rough idle anymore, but, I lost power. I read how to unplug the egr valve, but no difference. So I looked at the new and old valves and their completely different. Could that have something to do with it? Maybe the flash that everyone is talking about? Now I also have the edge juice and a cold air intake installed along with 5" stacks. This truck use to out run all the dodges around my town, now I just keep up. Should I go back to the dealer and complain?

IF you did get a new flash your chip may now need an upgrade to deal with the new Ford programing. I would find an upgrade/Mod forum and re-ask your question.
