Unhappy High egts

My buddy has a 02 ford f-350 an just sitting idleing his pyro is bout 350 an than cruising bout 45 r 50 its about 900 to 1150 the boost isnt goin over 10 even floored an usually doesnt even hit ten... The truck really has no power at all seems like half throttle barely moves the truck..I was wondering if any of you guys could help us? Do you think it could be a boost leak ??bad turbo? thanks

i would check for boost leaks first then i would pull intake and see if there is any play in the turbo shaft and see if it visually looks good.

I suggest you scan for codes. I would also have a shop check out the transmission. You don't build boost unless your under load. High RPM's High EGT's and low boost, low power can be a sign of a trans or torq converter slipping.
