power loss in 01 cummins boost trouble

i hooked my dodge up to a friends pro ecm reading tool because i have had a large drop in power between 2200rpm and 3000 and boost stops at 25 psi instead of 32 like it had for 3yrs. when i did this the ecm tool said under hard accl. i had almost 40psi of boost even though my mechanical gauge says boost is only 25psi. when we shut off the engine the ecm tool said i still had 12psi.i am the 2nd owner and don't know who the 1st and was. is it possible for a for a reprogrammer to make the ecm think it has 12 psi all the time.(it reads 0 psi if we unplug the map).
(the egt and fuel preasure are fine)

thanks for any thoughts

Hey man. did you get that map cleaned yet.
I think your biggest problem is your boost fooler.
your map could have been bad 4 a while but the boost fooler was covering it up. when that went out that would start your problem.

ill be back up that way in a few weeks if you cant get it figured out we can pull the edge compoff my truck and put it on yours to see if that will work.
talk at you later man

P.S. you need to fill out your sig so people can better help you out.
