Hi all, Here is a little bit of a back story first. (2002 F250 7.3 107,000 miles) Over the past summer I replaced the leaky uppipes, rebuilt the turbo (changing o-rings) and added the wicked wheel. I also upgraded to the Donaldson 6637 air filter. All is good, the truck has more power and...

Been going on for about a week, sat outside and got below freezing and now my truck sounds like a dang jet! Barely in the throttle, LOUD wooshing noise. If i get on it, spool up, it closes and takes off like a scalded dog. Anyone have any advice? After talking to a diesel mechanic whose seen...
