White Smoke Please HELP!!

I have a 2008 F-250 6.4 it has 113,000 hard miles. About 2 months ago I was driving home and the wrench light came on with the drive to clean exhaust message. I got to the house shut it off and when i cranked it back up it barly ran. Towed to the shop and was told the EGR valve was bad and the DPF was clogged. Picked it up and it was bellowing white smoke. rather than pay $2800 for a filter I had 4" flo-pro exhaust with the Off-road Sct livewire. Programmed the truck and now it bellows white smoke and acts like its flooding when you hit the gas more than an 1/8th throttle. If you ease into it, it revs fine as soon as you apply more throttle it breaks up and bellows smoke. Buring no oil/water and no mix. Took to a ford preformance shop and they said the turbos were bad. He said the impeller side was rounded off on both turbos and he was 90% positive it would fix the problem. He wants $4000 to install both turbos. Please help if you know what this could be .

Sounds to me like a stuck injector. But, I suggest you get another opinion since I am not a diesel guy,

Perhaps, but white smoke usually means a lot of excessive fuel. If you had bad turbos, you'd see black smoke from incomplete combustion due to a lack of air, plus lower pressure readings on the boost gauge.
