Lost Power
I have a 2000 F-350 CC LB 7.3 auto, hypertec tuner, garret ball baring, turbo, ASI intake.
The problem I am having is I have absolutly no power. I came back from a run from Minn. and everything was fine. When I got home I installed a 100 gallon fuel tank, with a fuel pump and lines that go into my filler neck. I went out on a run this morning and I have absolutly no power. At 65 my pyro is running 800 degrees and boost is running at 5 psi which is normal for me. At full throtle I get 900 degrees and 10 psi which is not anywhere close to normal. So I figured maybe my fuel filter and so I stopped and changed that. No improvement. Do you guys have any other thoughts??? !!!!
Sorry about not using the search feature I am on the road and my wife is typing this out for me.

Just got back from my montana run. The problem is the elbow in the X pipe that goes to the map sensor. It came out once before but it was at high boost, this time it must have happened when i started the truck. This elbow is no longer a tight fit. Has anyone else ran into this problem?

the easiest way i can describe to you how to find it is. Look on the passanger side firewall mounted to the hvac duct (in the engine compartment) there is a sensor mounted to a bracket. This sensor has a hose and an electrical connector. Follow the hose to the xpipe. The elbow is about 1/4 " diameter.
