bismic thank you there is no smoke. My gut feeling is expecting a turbo problem. If that is the case is there a recommended upgrade that is cost effective

Don't jump to a solution too quickly. These engines are complicated. Can you get the codes read somewhere?

You may want to do an air pressure test to see if you can identify a leak in the HPO system.
To do that you need to connect an air line to where the ICP sensor is, command the IPR closed by applying 12 V (but for only 30 seconds), and then listen for leaks.
Is your ICP sensor on the passenger valve cover or behind the turbo?
