No power after startup.

On my '01 F550 after I start it up and get ready to take off it will hardly pull itself. After it warms up for several minutes it will finally have enough power to pull itself. I have changed the oil and checked fuel pressure. Fuel pressure is 60 psi. Any thoughts? Or is this normal?

I'm still having this problem. Just wondered if anyone had an idea of what it might be.

Have you checked your rubber inter-cooler and intake boots for leakage?
No boost=no power

Yea the boots are fine. I took care of the oil in the intercooler and the air tubes. I did the ccv mod and hutch mod. Checked the glow plugs and control system. Works fine. I do notice a slight misfire when cold then it comes out of it after a couple of minutes.
