I have a 2002 f250 with the 7.3 I bought and install a wicked wheel. while the turbo was out I bought a blank pedestal and a Non-EBV Outlet Flange. I finished last night and was taking her out and heard what sounded like a blow off valve and now i have have no or very little boost. When I stopped i opened the hood and there was a little smoke. No oil leaks... I checked and rechecked all the exhaust fittings... no leaks........ How do i know if the turbo is getting oil? When I put in the blank pedestal do i need to do anything with the old ebv sensor wire?? Wastegate???

HELP!!! Thanks in advance..

was that the problem then? if you haven't fixed it already you might look into doing a CCV filter or reroute, and new intercooler boots from dieselsite, they are a pretty good upgrade over stock, and the crankcase vent filter or mod will keep oil from saturating the boots, which can cause boots to blow.
