Have you changed the fuel filter?
When the engine warms up, the computer goes into closed loop. It could be detecting knock and retarding the timing.

lvdodge, sounds like you need that little pug in for the stock turbo. I think TST and II have them. It gives a constant signal to the ecm to allow regular fuelling. ks

Before you buy a boost fooler (~$25) you could take the waste gate off of your stock turbo and hang it in the engine bay with the harness plugged into it to see if that is your problem. I would bet a new truck it is your problem though.

What exactly is lossing? Ya know with such a brief description I'm surprised that anyone could help you.
Also surprised someone didn't rush in and tell you your lift pump was junk.
