Super low EGt ?

I got a 04 6.0 and it runs fine when cold but soon as it warms up it starts chugging and has no power and super low egt (250-300)
Its got a Edge juice w/attatude. Any ideas ? Thanks

Try returning it to stock and see what happens. Then sell the Edge for a Spartan Phalanx. My .02

+1 on returning it to stock and seeing if it still acts up. The poor running while hot is frequently indicating an issue with low pressure in the "High Pressure Oil" system (ie leak or bad pump).

Also - VERY nice avatar. In a few weeks I am hoping to "stick" a few LARGE pigs I have coming to my feeder.
