    LOST BOOST

    Truck gets to 75mph on flat road. shifts fine,sounds good but my Edge Attitude shows no boost. Takes a couple of miles to get to speed.

    Can you hear the turbo?
    Is it sluggish?
    Smoke?
    Codes/ Check Engine light?

    are your EGT's higher than normal?... that would verify a boost leak.

    check the endtanks on your intercooler... where the plastic is clamped onto the aluminum core.

    Do you have your attitude monitor set to 'backdown' at an abnormally low boost level? Check your settings I guess if you aren't sure.

    If that is fine, call Edge and see what they say.
